Description:
------------
Imagick::readImageFile() should have a third optional parameter $length like in stream_copy_to_stream(), stream_get_contents(), fgets(), etc.
This will enable reading only a portion of a binary file who contains some image in itself.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

$image = [
    'offset' => 42,
    'size' => 1337,
];

$file = fopen('images.bin', 'rb');
fseek($file, $image['offset']);

$image = new Imagick();
$image->readImageFile($file, null, $image['size']);
$image->writeImage('image.png');

Although I can see why you might want this - can't you just do the stream copy to stream yourself? With something like

$objInputStream = fopen('images.bin', "rb");
$objTempStream = fopen("php://temp", "w+b");
stream_copy_to_stream(
    $objInputStream,
    $objTempStream,
    $maxlength,
    $offset)
);


rewind($objTempStream);
rewind($objInputStream);

And then open the image with $imagick->readImageFile($objTempStream);


The chance of this ever being implemented in the Imagick extension itself is 'low'.

I already did like this:

<?php
$image = [
    'offset' => 42,
    'size' => 1337,
];

$file = fopen('images.bin', 'rb');
fseek($file, $image['offset']);

$image = new Imagick();
$image->readImageBlob(stream_get_contents($file, $image['size']));
$image->writeImage('image.png');

But as in your code, the content need to be read twice.

Adding this complexity to the Imagick library does not sound like a good idea, when it's trivial to work around in userland.
