Description:
------------
According to the documentation, ZipArchive::getStream() will return the contents of a file, or false on failure. I'm receiving NULL for a certain file in an archive, though the archive passes validation with unzip -t.

The archive in question:
http://upload.tjbp.net/zipbug.zip

Test script:
---------------
$za = new \ZipArchive;

$za->open('zipbug.zip');

var_dump($za->getStream('gta_sa.set'));

Expected result:
----------------
Contents of the file in the archive

Actual result:
--------------
NULL

I assume the file can't be read, because it is compressed with
Deflate64 (byte 0x140 of zipbug.zip is 0x09), and this compression
method is likely to be unsupported.

The NULL return value is the result of zip_stat() succeeding, but
php_stream_zip_open() failing in ZipArchive::getStream()[1]. A
simple

  else {
      RETURN_FALSE;
  }
  
at the end of the method would return FALSE, but the return value
of NULL may well be by design, and if so the documentation should
be improved.
