Description:
------------
The http_response_code() function should return number (int) and text (string) of response. Currently only the int of the response code is output.

$http_response_headers works for streams in this way; http_response_code should also include this functionality.

Test script:
---------------
Current:

var_dump(http_response_code());

// int(200)


Suggested:

var_dump(http_response_code)());

// int(200)
// string(2) "OK"


Current: 

var_dump(http_response_code());

// int(301)


Suggested:

var_dump(http_response_code());

// int(301)
// string(17) "Moved Permanently"

Expected result:
----------------
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
etc.

Actual result:
--------------
200
301

I'm sorry but this does not make much sense in terms of the new return values. In any case I don't think we can change this function due to BC implication.

But I will leave it open as more request to easily expose response text which I would imagine as a completely new function
