Bug description:forward_static_call doesn't trigger __callStatic for 
non-existing methods

Description:
------------
---
>From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.forward-static-call
---

The manual page makes you think that this function can be used to force a
static method 
call, it however doesn't. Essentially, this functions just does the same
thing as does 
the :: operator, which heavily depends on the current context - as
unfortunately does 
forward_static_call.

One might expect, that using a function which says in its name and
description, that it 
will call static methods, that calling non-existing static methods will end
up in 
__callStatic and not in __call.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

class A {

        public function __call($name, $arguments) {
                echo("i don't want to be in here :-(");
        }

        public static function __callStatic($name, $arguments) {
                echo('i want to be in here, but how?');
        }

        public function instanceMethod() {
                // objective: call a non-existing static method,
                // so that eventually __callStatic is called and
                // can take care of things
                forward_static_call(['A', 'test']);
        }

}

(new A())->instanceMethod();

?>

Expected result:
----------------
i want to be in here, but how?

Actual result:
--------------
i don't want to be in here :-(
