Description:
------------
Diff between 2 DateTimes makes wrong in hour and create -1
I test some cases and think is about setting timezone

Test script:
---------------
date_default_timezone_set('Asia/Tehran');
$date1 = new \DateTime('2019-09-24 11:47:24');
$date2 = new \DateTime('2019-08-21 12:47:24');

var_dump($date1->diff($date2));

Expected result:
----------------
object(DateInterval)#3 (16) {
  ["y"]=>
  int(0)
  ["m"]=>
  int(1)
  ["d"]=>
  int(2)
  ["h"]=>
  int(23)
  ["i"]=>
  int(0)
  ["s"]=>
  int(0)
  ["f"]=>
  float(0)
  ["weekday"]=>
  int(0)
  ["weekday_behavior"]=>
  int(0)
  ["first_last_day_of"]=>
  int(0)
  ["invert"]=>
  int(1)
  ["days"]=>
  int(33)
  ["special_type"]=>
  int(0)
  ["special_amount"]=>
  int(0)
  ["have_weekday_relative"]=>
  int(0)
  ["have_special_relative"]=>
  int(0)
}


Actual result:
--------------
object(DateInterval)#3 (16) {
  ["y"]=>
  int(0)
  ["m"]=>
  int(1)
  ["d"]=>
  int(3)
  ["h"]=>
  int(-1)
  ["i"]=>
  int(0)
  ["s"]=>
  int(0)
  ["f"]=>
  float(0)
  ["weekday"]=>
  int(0)
  ["weekday_behavior"]=>
  int(0)
  ["first_last_day_of"]=>
  int(0)
  ["invert"]=>
  int(1)
  ["days"]=>
  int(33)
  ["special_type"]=>
  int(0)
  ["special_amount"]=>
  int(0)
  ["have_weekday_relative"]=>
  int(0)
  ["have_special_relative"]=>
  int(0)
}

I think this is a problem in daylight saving time.

Test script:
---------------
date_default_timezone_set('Asia/Tehran');
$date1 = new \DateTime('2019-09-21 11:47:24');
$date2 = new \DateTime('2019-08-18 12:47:24');

var_dump($date1->diff($date2));

--------------
object(DateInterval)#3 (16) {
  ["y"]=>
  int(0)
  ["m"]=>
  int(1)
  ["d"]=>
  int(2)
  ["h"]=>
  int(23)
  ["i"]=>
  int(0)
  ["s"]=>
  int(0)
  ["f"]=>
  float(0)
  ["weekday"]=>
  int(0)
  ["weekday_behavior"]=>
  int(0)
  ["first_last_day_of"]=>
  int(0)
  ["invert"]=>
  int(1)
  ["days"]=>
  int(33)
  ["special_type"]=>
  int(0)
  ["special_amount"]=>

}

<?php

It seems need to fix daylight saving time

date_default_timezone_set('America/New_York');
$date1 = new \DateTime('2019-11-05 11:47:24');
$date2 = new \DateTime('2019-10-02 12:47:24');

var_dump($date1->diff($date2));

----------------
object(DateInterval)#3 (16) {
  ["y"]=>
  int(0)
  ["m"]=>
  int(1)
  ["d"]=>
  int(3)
  ["h"]=>
  int(-1)
  ["i"]=>
  int(0)

  int(0)
  ["f"]=>
  float(0)
  ["weekday"]=>

It is a documentation problem, the time -1 indicates that it is to be subtracted from the day not covered by the month (php differs from human arithmetic and can mistakenly believe that 30 days is a month instead it takes 31 days or vice versa https://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.examples-arithmetic.php ), both the outputs are on the same side.
