PHP Bug Type:     XML Reader
Bug description:  Empty element should also return END_ELEMENT

Description:
------------
Element <a></a> returns twice, one for XMLReader::ELEMENT and one for
XMLReader::END_ELEMENT.

Element <a/> returns once, for XMLReader::ELEMENT.

That should return a XMLReader::END_ELEMENT too, because that's implicit.

Problem is that now you can't distinguish between <a><b> and <a/><b> and
that's a bug.

Reproduce code:
---------------
  $reader = new XMLReader();
  $reader->open($file);
  echo "<table>\n";
  while ($reader->read()) {
    echo "<tr><td>".$reader->nodeType."</td><td>".$node =
$reader->name."</td><td>".$reader->value."</td></tr>\n";
  }
  echo "</table>\n";


Input:

<Titles>
  <Title>
    <ID>429</ID>
    <Type />
    <Barcode>
    </Barcode>


Expected result:
----------------
1       Titles  
14      #text   
1       Title   
14      #text   
1       ID      
3       #text   429
15      ID      
14      #text   
1       Type    
14      #text   
15      Type    
14      #text   
1       Barcode 
14      #text   
15      Barcode
14      #text

Actual result:
--------------
1       Titles  
14      #text   
1       Title   
14      #text   
1       ID      
3       #text   429
15      ID      
14      #text   
1       Type    
14      #text   
1       Barcode 
14      #text   
15      Barcode
14      #text
