Bug description:wrong return type in docs

Description:
------------
The return type for mb-strpos is declared as int, although it can be
either int of false, as is explained in the text of the documentation
later on. To somebody reading only the call-description but not the
textual description, this is misleading.

---
mb_strpos ( string $haystack , string $needle [, int $offset = 0 [,
string $encoding = mb_internal_encoding() ]] ) : int
---

---
From manual page: https://php.net/function.mb-strpos
---


Test script:
---------------
Irrelevant

Expected result:
----------------
Remove the PHP7.1 return type
