Description:
------------
This is not strictly a bug and more of a feature request (if there is a better place for feature requests then please let me know).

At the moment there is no way to find out if a parameter for a method has a default value or not.

It would be nice is the ReflectionParameter class had something like the the following methods.

<boolean> ReflectionParameter->isRequired()

Returns TRUE if the parameter is required or FALSE if it is not required (and therefore has a default value).

<mixed> ReflectionParameter->getDefault()

Returns the default value for the parameter. This could throw an Exception if no default value is set as it could be possiable for the default value to be FALSE :)



Reproduce code:
---------------
n/a

Expected result:
----------------
n/a

Actual result:
--------------
n/a
