Merge branch 'pull-request/54'

* pull-request/54:
Allow arbitrary expressions for empty()

This change is as per RFC https://wiki.php.net/rfc/empty_isset_exprs.

The change allows passing the result of function calls and other
expressions to the empty() language construct. This is accomplished by
simply rewriting empty(expr) to !expr.

The change does not affect the suppression of errors when using empty()
on variables. empty($undefinedVar) will continue not to throw errors.
When an expression is used inside empty() on the other hand, errors will
not be suppressed. Thus empty($undefinedVar + $somethingElse) *will*
throw a notice.

The change also does not make empty() into a real function, so using
'empty' as a callback is still not possible.

In addition to the empty() changes the commit adds nicer error messages
when isset() is used on function call results or other expressions.

Keep date precision in MessageFormatter.

MessageFormatter::parse and MessageFormat::format (and their static
equivalents) now don't throw away better than second precision in the
arguments.

It's already bad enough that in MessageFormatter and IntlDateFormatter we
use seconds since epoch instead of milliseconds since epoch, deviating
from the ICU date representations. But we don't need to throw away extra
precision when parsing dates; we can keep the seconds since epoch
convention and return non integer doubles with only a small BC impact.
Note that we already could return doubles from MessageFormatter::parse if
the date was sufficiently in the past or in the future.

add note about corrected tiger hash output

This change was badly worded and filed in the wrong section.
This isn't an ini change at all.
