Description:
------------
REQUEST_TIME_FLOAT and REQUEST_TIME are not accessible through filter_input...
That is pretty self-explanatory.

Running this on Windows 7 + Apache 2.4, but it would be nice if somebody could check other platforms.

Test script:
---------------
foreach ($_SERVER as $i => $x) {
	if (!filter_has_var(INPUT_SERVER, $i)) {
		echo $i."\n";
	}
}

Expected result:
----------------
(no output)

Actual result:
--------------
REQUEST_TIME_FLOAT
REQUEST_TIME

Encountered this bug on Arch Linux with PHP 5.5.5 and Apache 2.2. It also affects PHP_AUTH_USER and PHP_AUTH_PW - they are also inaccessible (should I report this as another bug?)

Problem also exists in PHP version 5.5.5 on FreeBSD 9.2, Nginx 1.5.7, PHP-FPM. _SERVER["HOME"] and _SERVER["USER"] variables are also missing.

Test:
<?php
echo var_export(array_diff_key($_SERVER, filter_input_array(INPUT_SERVER, FILTER_UNSAFE_RAW)), true);
?>

should not return anything, but instead returns:
<?php
array (
  'HOME' => '/nonexistent',
  'USER' => 'www',
  'REQUEST_TIME_FLOAT' => 1386135028.8222,
  'REQUEST_TIME' => 1386135028,
)
?>

Same problem when using "filter_input" function, e.g.

<?php
filter_input(INPUT_SERVER, 'REQUEST_TIME',...
?>

The filter type doesn't seem to matter - same problem with FILTER_SANITIZE_FULL_SPECIAL_CHARS

I fail to see why REQUEST_TIME(_FLOAT) should be filtered, since
these are not user suppliable values.
