Description:
------------
On MacOS 10.14 w/PHP 7.2.9, socket_recvfrom is returning invalid 'from' addresses which have trailing garbage bytes at the end.

This makes it impossible to respond with socket_sendto unless you know what the correct 'from' address should be.

I created a pull request for this bug on GitHub: https://github.com/php/php-src/pull/3408

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

for ($i = 0; $i < 10; $i++) {
    $senderSocketPath = '/tmp/' . substr(md5(rand()), 0, rand(8, 16)) . '.sock';
    $senderSocket = socket_create(AF_UNIX, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
    socket_bind($senderSocket, $senderSocketPath);

    $receiverSocketPath = '/tmp/' . substr(md5(rand()), 0, rand(8, 16)) . '.sock';
    $receiverSocket = socket_create(AF_UNIX, SOCK_DGRAM, 0);
    socket_bind($receiverSocket, $receiverSocketPath);

    // Send message from socket 1 to socket 2
    socket_sendto($senderSocket, 'Ping!', 5, 0, $receiverSocketPath);

    // Receive & respond to message on socket 2
    $from = '';
    $message = '';
    socket_recvfrom($receiverSocket, $message, 65535, 0, $from);
    echo "Received '$message'\n";

    // Respond to the sender using the 'from' address from socket_recvfrom
    socket_sendto($receiverSocket, 'Pong!', 5, 0, $from);
    echo "Responded to sender with 'Pong!'\n";

    socket_close($receiverSocket);
    unlink($receiverSocketPath);
    socket_close($senderSocket);
    unlink($senderSocketPath);
}

Expected result:
----------------
Received 'Ping!'
Responded to sender with 'Pong!'
Received 'Ping!'
Responded to sender with 'Pong!'
Received 'Ping!'
Responded to sender with 'Pong!'
Received 'Ping!'
Responded to sender with 'Pong!'
Received 'Ping!'
Responded to sender with 'Pong!'
Received 'Ping!'
Responded to sender with 'Pong!'
Received 'Ping!'
Responded to sender with 'Pong!'
Received 'Ping!'
Responded to sender with 'Pong!'
Received 'Ping!'
Responded to sender with 'Pong!'
Received 'Ping!'
Responded to sender with 'Pong!'

Actual result:
--------------
Received 'Ping!'
Responded to sender with 'Pong!'
Received 'Ping!'
Responded to sender with 'Pong!'
Received 'Ping!'
