Description:
------------
str_contains() asserts that 'test' string contains null   
str_contains() asserts that 'test' string contains empty string

php -r "var_dump(str_contains('test', null));"
bool(true)

php -r "var_dump(str_contains('test', ''));"
bool(true)

Test script:
---------------
var_dump(str_contains('test', null));
var_dump(str_contains('test', ''));


Expected result:
----------------
In test script I expect to see false value for both code lines

Actual result:
--------------
In test script I see true value for both code lines
