Bug description:Support a function to escape glob metacharacters

Description:
------------
Atm there is no api to escape glob patterns.

this makes glob() useless for cases in which dynamic (maybe even
user-supplied contents will be embedded into the glob pattern).

Test script:
---------------
$glob = 'hallo*lala'; // I want this string to match the literal '*'
char 
glob(glob_quote($glob))
