Bug description:mb_strpos reports needle position incorrectly

Description:
------------
If code sets incorrect character set (utf-8 instead of big5 in test case),
mb_strpos() can incorrectly report needle position in some cases. It looks
like $offset is calculated one way and results are calculated in some other
way. See test code. mb_substr($str,$pos1,1,'utf-8') can be used to see
character that is in reported needle position.



I understand that $str is not in UTF-8 charset, but position reported by
mb_strpos() violates very basic strpos function behavior. Search is started
after $offset position and result position is counted from string start.
Result should not be lower than $offset or it should be boolean false.



php5.3-201008291230

compiled with /configure --prefix=/somepath --enable-cli --disable-all
--enable-mbstring



Also tested PHP 5.2.0 (debian etch), 5.3.2-2 (debian squeeze) and 5.2.13
(standard PHP package). 5.2.13 and 5.3.2 results are the same. 5.2.0
results are a little bit different, but I was able to reproduce position
calculation problem with more complex code.



Test script:
---------------
$str = "\xb7\x51 &\xb4\xa6\xb6\x7d";

$pos1 = mb_strpos($str,'&',0,'utf-8');

var_dump($pos1);

$pos2 = mb_strpos($str,'&',$pos1 + 1,'utf-8');

var_dump($pos2);

Expected result:
----------------
second var_dump() result should be higher than first one or should be
boolean false.



result should not be lower than offset.



Actual result:
--------------
int(2)

int(2)
