stream_bucket_prepend() and stream_bucket_append() assumed that a successful zend_read_property() of the typed StreamBucket::$data property always yields a string, but when the property has been unset in the filter callback the read throws while returning &EG(uninitialized_zval), so Z_STRLEN_P() dereferenced a NULL string pointer and crashed once the brigade was consumed. The fix rejects non-string reads up front, rethrowing any pending exception, so a bucket is never re-attached with undefined data. The sibling $bucket property path is already safe because zend_fetch_resource_ex() rejects non-resources. A regression test is included.
