Bug description:Metaphone returns string longer than limit
Description:
------------
The metaphone function accepts two parameters: an input string, and a
string length limit. With certain input, it is possible to cause metaphone
to return a string longer than the specified limit.
The issue seems to arise when the string is nearing it's length limit and
the following input character is an X, which can translate to a KS, pushing
the string over its limit.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
var_dump( metaphone('administratrix', 10) );
var_dump( metaphone('asterix', 5) );
?>
Expected result:
----------------
string(10) "ATMNSTRTRK"
string(5) "ASTRK"
Actual result:
--------------
string(11) "ATMNSTRTRKS"
string(6) "ASTRKS"
