Description:
------------
http_response_code cannot override the status code generated by header
It doesn't work with php-server, nginx-server.

If it is not fixable, I guess it must be in the official documentation here https://www.php.net/manual/ru/function.http-response-code.php and the function must be recognized as deprecated. 

There is my question on Stackoverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/69197771/why-is-function-http-response-code-acting-strange-that-was-called-after-functi


Test script:
---------------
<?php
header('HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found');
http_response_code(501);
http_response_code(502);
http_response_code(503);



Expected result:
----------------
HTTP/1.1 503 Service Unavailable
Host: localhost:9958
Date: Wed, 15 Sep 2021 17:20:05 GMT
Connection: close
X-Powered-By: PHP/8.0.10
Content-type: text/html; charset=UTF-8


Actual result:
--------------
HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found
Host: localhost:9958
Date: Wed, 15 Sep 2021 17:20:05 GMT
Connection: close
X-Powered-By: PHP/8.0.10

Thank you for reporting this issue, and also for linking to the SO
question.  Pete's answer[1] is very useful, and spot on.

It seems to me the proper solution would be for http_response_code()
to call sapi_header_op(SAPI_HEADER_SET_STATUS, …) instead of manually
setting SG(sapi_headers).http_response_code.

I'm interested to work on this issue if it's not already in progress.
