Package:          Unknown/Other Function
Bug Type:         Bug
Bug description:assert() can be imported via use statement

Description:
------------
In PHP 7, assert became a language construct and cannot be redefined
as a user function. Typically language constructs can't be imported via
use statements, however, it seems that assert can be imported via a
use statement. I'm not sure if this is intentional or not for BC
purposes. PHP throws a ParseError when trying to import other language
constructs, such as isset, so I would expect importing assert to
throw as well.

Test script:
---------------
// Works, unexpectedly
namespace Foo {
    use function assert;
}

// Doesn't work, as expected
namespace Foo {
    use function isset;
}
