Bug description: WDDX serializer encodes all non-ascii characters with <char/>
Description:
------------
The condition which determines if a character in string should be encoded
using the <char code="XX"/> construct was changed in
php-src/ext/wddx/wddx.c was changed in rev. 1.135 to:
if (iscntrl((int)*(unsigned char *)p) || (int)*(unsigned char *)p >= 127)
{
...encode using <char code="XX"/>...
}
This means that _all_ non-ascii characters are encoded with the construct,
which explodes the result packet size if non-ascii characters are used.
The "|| (int)*(unsigned char *)p >= 127" parts seems as left-over debug
code and should be removed.
Reproduce code:
---------------
// this was not actually tried, this is just code review
wddx_serialize_value(char(200));
Expected result:
----------------
<wddxPacket
version='1.0'><header/><data><string>Č</string></data></wddxPacket>
Actual result:
--------------
<wddxPacket version='1.0'><header/><data><string><char
code="C8"/></string></data></wddxPacket>
