In this case, a new stream context is allocated[1], converted to a
zval[2] which increases the refcount, but the refcount is only
decreased once[3], resulting in the reported memory leak.  So not
increasing the refcount when converting to a zval would solve this
issue.  However, if a stream context is passed in the $options
array, its refcount has to be increased to avoid premature
freeing.
