Description:
------------
The documentation says that the second argument to imagexbm (like the other functions) is optional, and that if not included, the output will be sent to stdout instead of to a file. However, on running the test script, I get a PHP Warning about the second argument missing and nothing is outputted to stdout. Changing the used function to imagegif (or any other variant) works as expected.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

// Create a blank image and add some text
$im = imagecreatetruecolor(120, 20);
$text_color = imagecolorallocate($im, 233, 14, 91);
imagestring($im, 1, 5, 5,  'A Simple Text String', $text_color);

// Output the image
imagexbm($im);

// Free up memory
imagedestroy($im);


Expected result:
----------------
Output the imagexbm binary to stdout

Actual result:
--------------
PHP Warning:  imagexbm() expects at least 2 parameters, 1 given in /tmp/test.php on line 9

The docs are wrong about this.  The second parameter is not
optional, but it is nullable; so you could do

    imagexbm($im, null);

As of PHP 8.0.0, the second parameter is actually optional,
though.
