Bug description:  filter_var() should accept objects without fatal error

Description:
------------
<?php
filter_var(new stdClass, FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL);
?>

throws a fatal error because stdClass can't be converted into a string. 
filter_var() should be more flexible and simply return false in this
situation, it makes it very difficult to provide validation not just for
untrusted user input but for untrusted third party use of libraries who may
make it insecure by passing in the wrong value to a field for setting.
