Description:
------------
header_remove($name) removes only one header $name. The function header() behaves the same way and replaces only first header.

Test script:
---------------
header('A: first');
header('A: second', FALSE); // append

// removes only 'A: first' and header 'A: second' is sent
header_remove('A');



Expected result:
----------------
no 'A' header is sent

Actual result:
--------------
header A: second is sent

Which SAPI are you using? CGI, FPM, Apache2 handler, Apache2 filter, something 
else?

I am using cgi-fci. Now I found that it works correctly with apache2handler.

Hi, 
   after looking at the code,I found that SAPI it self did't handle multiple 
headers properly, apache2handler handles it for itself. so apache2handler can 
remove correctly.

   SAPI headers are saved in zend_llist. when try to remove or replace it simply 
try to find the first one it found. I've looked at sapi/cli&cgi they both didn't 
handle it itself.
   Sine header() doc says: "The optional replace parameter indicates whether the 
header should replace a previous similar header". but it did't behavior like 
this.
    So I made a patch for this. can someone review this pull request for me?

thanks.
