Bug description:XMLReader::next($localname) moves cursor even if there is no more $localname

Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/xmlreader.next
---
I'm not sure if this obvious, or is not a bug. next() method when invoked
with a 
parameter (with $localname non-empty) moves the cursor even if there is no
more 
$localname items and next() returns false. This in fact proved helpful for
me 
while implementing a custom iterator. But it could still be useful to
include this 
information in the documentation.

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$itemTag = "test";
$xml = <<<EOX
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<tests>
    <test>
        <lorem>11111</lorem>
    </test>
    <test>
        <lorem>22222</lorem>
    </test>
</tests>
EOX;
$reader = new \XMLReader();
$reader->XML($xml);
// move to the first element
while ($reader->read() && $reader->name !== $itemTag) {}
echo "Current: " . $reader->name . "\n";
$reader->next($itemTag);
$reader->next($itemTag);
echo "Current: " . $reader->name . "\n";


Expected result:
----------------
Current: test
Current: test

Actual result:
--------------
Current: test
Current:
