Description:
------------
I've verified this is an issue on PHP 5.4, 5.6, and statically on the master branch.

The AWS SDK (https://aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-php/) includes a stream wrapper that by default does not support seeking on files backed by S3. Calling getimagesize() on an image can fail if php_skip_variable() is called. I've seen this happen with images that specify the "Image Quality" EXIF tag, which is the M_APP15 constant in ext/standard/image.c.

The stream documentation states that seeking is not required to be supported by stream wrappers, and it's not clear that getimagesize() needs seeking to work properly.

I see two ways to improve this:

* Log a notice if php_skip_variable() tries to seek on an unseekable stream. That would have saved me a ton of time tracing this with GDB.
* Or, if a stream is not seekable, copy the file to the temporary file system and fetch metadata from there.

For SEEK_CUR and positive offsets, non-seekable streams are
supposed to be read (discarding what was written).  So if you can
still reproduce this issue with any of the actively supported PHP
versions[1], please provide a minimal self-contained reproduce
script.
