Description:
------------
The copy function should accept context parameters since it can accept 
URL's of the fopen wrapper variety. Specific situation where this is 
needed is when using ftp:// url's you should be able to specify 
overwrite context for the destination URL.

Reproduce code:
---------------
N/A: feature request for filesystem function

Expected result:
----------------
copy should be able to over write a destination file when using ftp:// 
url's

Actual result:
--------------
Throws error:
PHP Warning:  copy(ftp://...@host.com/testFTP/test): failed to open 
stream: Remote file already exists and overwrite context option not 
specified.

Log: Fixed the context parameter on copy() to actually have an effect

# After looking at the logs, Jani did a bad merge into 5.3, so that
# the context parameter sent to copy() actually isn't used at all. This
# relatively simple patch fixes that for trunk.
#
# See FR #42965

# internals:
# This changes the php_copy_*() decls to contain an additional parameter for stream contexts
