Description:
------------
DateTime::createFromFormat not checking properly provided format (day [01-31] and month [01-12] limitations) and only checking number of digits. 

Test script:
---------------
<?php
var_dump(DateTime::createFromFormat('Y-m-d', '9999-99-99'));

Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)

Actual result:
--------------
object(DateTime)#9 (3) {
  ["date"]=>
  string(20) "10007-06-07 13:28:21"
  ["timezone_type"]=>
  int(3)
  ["timezone"]=>
  string(13) "Europe/Berlin"
}

createFromFormat(), like other functions that parse free text date strings, will wrap out of range values rather than generating errors, so long as they match the expected format (in terms of number of digits).
