Description:
------------
When using stream_filter_append, used memor increase until a Fatal error: Allowed memory error occurred.

This bug appears on PHP 7.3.11 and greater.

To reproduce, you will need to have the script test.php and a large file (here named file.txt). If needed, you can create a dummy blank file with this command (unix)

dd if=/dev/urandom of=file.txt bs=1048576 count=100

For easier test, I used official docker image and mount a folder with this two files.

In the actual result, you will see that the memory usage is increasing until a fatal error occurred.

In the expected result, you will see that the memory usage is stable all the long of the file reading. You can reproduce the expected result using the php:7.3.10-cli docker image.


Test script:
---------------
docker run -it --rm -v "/home/public":/usr/src/myapp -w /usr/src/myapp php:7.4.0-cli php test.php

<?php /** test.php **/
class useless_filter extends php_user_filter
{
    function filter($in, $out, &$consumed, $closing)
    {
        while ($bucket = stream_bucket_make_writeable($in)) {
            $consumed += $bucket->datalen;
            stream_bucket_append($out, $bucket);
        }
        echo memory_get_usage() . "\n";
        return PSFS_PASS_ON;
    }
}
stream_filter_register("useless", "useless_filter") or die("Failed to register filter");
$fp = fopen("file.txt", "r");
stream_filter_append($fp, "useless");
while (!feof($fp)) { fread($fp, 8192); }
fclose($fp);

Expected result:

> If so, will it be fixed in 7.2.x ?

given that 7.2 is simply EOL the answer is clearly no

Can this patch be added to 7.3.13 as well?
