Description:
------------
I found that it is possible to establish > 1 persistent connections with unique_id to TCP socket using syntax provided below:

$s1=stream_socket_client('tcp://127.0.0.1:1234/id1', $errno, $errstr, 3, STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT | STREAM_CLIENT_PERSISTENT);

$s2=stream_socket_client('tcp://127.0.0.1:1234/id2', $errno, $errstr, 3, STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT | STREAM_CLIENT_PERSISTENT);


id1 and id2 are an unique identifiers which i can use later. This way i can use > 1 persistent connection to the same host->port. Unfortunately it does not work for the UNIX socket type. My proposed change is to add optional columnn (:) to the UNIX socket and use it as identifier. E.g. 

$s1=stream_socket_client('unix:////var/run/unix.sock:id1', $errno, $errstr, 3, STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT | STREAM_CLIENT_PERSISTENT);
$s2=stream_socket_client('unix:////var/run/unix.sock:id2', $errno, $errstr, 3, STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT | STREAM_CLIENT_PERSISTENT);

Part before column is used as socket path name, path after columnt - as connection id.

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$sock = stream_socket_client('unix:////var/run/unix.sock:234', $errno, $errstr, 3, STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT | STREAM_CLIENT_PERSISTENT);
if($errno) echo $errstr."\n";
$sock2 = stream_socket_client('unix:////var/run/unix.sock:123', $errno, $errstr, 3, STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT | STREAM_CLIENT_PERSISTENT);
if($errno) echo $errstr."\n";
// here we can use "netstat -an|grep unix.sock"  to control number of established connections
sleep(1000));
?>


Expected result:
----------------
no connection errors and 2 different connections

Actual result:
--------------
connection error

Similar feature/change request, but for persistent id customization support for 
stream_socket_client().

I wrote some code as an APNS client which uses stream_socket_client() and have 
STREAM_CLIENT_PERSISTENT on. But if I need more than one client certificate to 
make my code working as a service for more than one app, I have to create 
different stream context. 

The problem is, 

In ext/standard/streamsfuncs.c (ver 5.4.8)

 109     if (flags & PHP_STREAM_CLIENT_PERSISTENT) {
 110         spprintf(&hashkey, 0, "stream_socket_client__%s", host);
 111     }

and 

 131     stream = php_stream_xport_create(host, host_len, REPORT_ERRORS,
 132             STREAM_XPORT_CLIENT | (flags & PHP_STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT ? 
STREAM_XPORT_CONNECT : 0) |
 133             (flags & PHP_STREAM_CLIENT_ASYNC_CONNECT ? 
STREAM_XPORT_CONNECT_ASYNC : 0),
 134             hashkey, &tv, context, &errstr, &err);

'hashkey' is used as a persistent id for connections, in fact, one same hashkey 
shared by many '$context's.

Additional parameter is requested to customize the persistent id use by 
php_stream_xport_create().


Sample Code:
class spSimpleAPNS{
...
	protected function connect($key)
	{
		# Create Context
		$ctx = stream_context_create();
		stream_context_set_option($ctx, 'ssl', 'local_cert', $this-
>cert_path);

		#
		# Push
		$fp = stream_socket_client($this->servers[$this->dev_mode ? 
'sandbox' : 'product'][$key], $errno, $error, 100, 
(STREAM_CLIENT_CONNECT|PHP_STREAM_CLIENT_PERSISTENT), $ctx);
		stream_set_blocking($fp, 0);
        ...
