Bug description: pickle/unpickle
Description:
------------
For the unknowing, pickle is the python derived term for object
serialization. Currenlty, session management has such functionality, but
this functionality is not exposed to the programmer to be done outside of
using a session. I propose there be a pickle/unpickle function that uses
the same serialization method that the session managment uses.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$foo = array(1, 2, 3)
$string = pickle($foo);
echo $string;
$bar = unpickle($foo);
echo $bar;
print_r($bar);
Expected result:
----------------
a:3:{i:0;i:1;i:1;i:2;i:2;i:3;}
Array
Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 2 [2] => 3 )
