Description:
------------
When sending a Cookie back to the server, SoapClient appends a 0-byte to the name of the cookie.

I have tracked this down to commit 6c2a8068207a02b3d7ae7416a9967dad0a81e61f that changed 

smart_str_appendl(&soap_headers, key, strlen(key));

to 

smart_str_appendl(&soap_headers, key, key_len);

in soap/php_http.c

I'm not too versed in the internals of PHP, but it looks to me like zend_hash_get_current_key_ex which is now used instead of zend_hash_get_current_key is returning the length of the value which includes the 0-terminator in case of strings and smart_str_appendl assumes the length to be without the 0 terminator (which is obvious when you look at the code pre-patch).

The fix is to either change that line to 

smart_str_appendl(&soap_headers, key, key_len-1);

or 

smart_str_appendl(&soap_headers, key, strlen(key));

Or to fix smart_srt_appendl, but that's used all over the code and assumes the length to be the string length, not the byte length, so that feels too invasive to me.

I will provide a patch to do the former, but feel free to do the latter.



Expected result:
----------------
when the server sends

Set-Cookie: JSESSIONID=foobar

I expect SoapClient to send

Cookie: JSESSIONID=foobar

Actual result:
--------------
SoapClient sends

Cookie: JSESSIONID_NULL_=foobar
