Description:
------------
Trying var_dump()/print_r() a DOMAttr prints an E_WARNING message "Not yet 
implemented".

Test script:
---------------
<?php

$doc = new DOMDocument();
$doc->loadXML('<example a="b">Test</example>');

$example = $doc->getElementsByTagName('example')->item(0);
$attr    = $example->getAttributeNode('a');

var_dump($attr);
print_r($attr);


Expected result:
----------------
object(DOMAttr)#2 (20) {
  ["name"]=>
  string(1) "a"
  ["specified"]=>
  bool(true)
  ["value"]=>
  string(1) "b"
  ["ownerElement"]=>
  string(22) "(object value omitted)"
  ["schemaTypeInfo"]=>
  NULL
  ["nodeName"]=>
  string(1) "a"
  ["nodeValue"]=>
  string(1) "b"
  ["nodeType"]=>
  int(2)
  ["parentNode"]=>

  string(1) "a"
  ["baseURI"]=>
  string(1) "/"
  ["textContent"]=>
  string(1) "b"
}

warning was generated, while both objects were printed as if the are empty.

In 5.3.11 - 5.3.13, 5.4.1 - 5.4.3 the content IS printed, AND a warning is 
generated.

It tries to fetch DomAttr->schemaTypeInfo (DOM3) which results in the "not implemented" warning.

This issue happens when doing something as simple as:

$attribute = $element->getAttributeNode($attributeName);

Still not fixed in PHP 5.6.

In PHP 7 the behavior is a little different - I don't see an actual warning but it kills xdebug (tracing a couple of line after calling a function that would throw an E_WARNING in PHP 5.6 causes the trace to immediately exit the current function and go back to the parent stack frame).

Unless I find a way to work around this - I won't be able to work with DOMDocument.

How come it wasn't fixed for more than 4 years?? It seems pretty trivial as it's just debugging code!
