Reproduced on 7.4.16

Description:
------------
When sesssion.save_handler is set to something unknown eg. 

- 'whatever'
- 'memcached' when memcached is not installed
- Value that reports Warning: ini_set(): Session save handler "XXX" cannot be found
for calling ini_set('session.save_handler', 'XXX');

Then calling session_set_save_handler() has no effect.

Test script:
---------------
Set sesssion.save_handler to 'whatever' in php.ini


```
<?php

$initHandler = ini_get('session.save_handler');

session_set_save_handler(new MyHandlerImpl());

$setHandler = ini_get('session.save_handler');


echo 'Init Handler is: ' . $initHandler . PHP_EOL;
echo 'Set Handler is: ' . $setHandler . PHP_EOL;
```

Expected result:
----------------
Init Handler is: whatever
Set Handler is: user

Actual result:
--------------
Init Handler is: whatever
Set Handler is: whatever


------------------------------------------------------------------------
