Comment (by jrf):

 @costdev did some testing regarding the non-nullablility and got confusing
 results, so I've now actually [https://github.com/php/php-
 src/blob/c68591fa1681dd63b34a429a3378c37f4a657d8d/ext/mysqli/mysqli.stub.php#L294-L306
 checked the PHP source] and turns out the parameters **ARE** nullable and
 that the PHP manual is either wrong or just plain confusing.

 Sorry for causing confusion with my previous comment, though my remark
 about it being a good idea to add a test to cover the current patch still
 stands.
