Add SORT_STRICT option to array_unique()
Provide a way to request the use of strict comparison (===) when using `array_unique`. SORT_STRICT falls back to normal (==) comparison when values are not identical and not ==. For array values which are == but not === we recursively compare the elements; for object values which are == but not === we first compare class names and if that doesn't break the tie we compare the `spl_object_id()` of the objects.
