Description:
------------
strip_tags() doesn't respect the given allowable tag. for example 
  var_dump(strip_tags("<html>Hello World</html>", "<<html>>") );

given the allowable tag as "<<html>>" allows the <html> tag which, i think is not desirable. <<html>> is not same as <html>.



Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
   var_dump( strip_tags("<html>Hello World</html>", "<<html>>") );
?>


Expected result:
----------------
string(11) "Hello World"

Actual result:
--------------
string(24) "<html>Hello World</html>"
