Error when mocking abstract class with no abstract methods

[blt04]

When mocking an abstract class with no abstract methods using getMockForAbstractClass() an error occurs:

Argument 2 passed to PHPUnit_Framework_MockObject_Generator::generateMock() must be an
array, null given, called in /usr/share/php/PHPUnit/Framework/MockObject/Generator.php
on line 280 and defined

generateMock() should allow $methods to be null. This indicates no methods should be mocked (see 977).

This pull request fixes this by allowing null while still enforcing type hinting. For more info, see the first paragraph of type hinting.

The Symfony2 test suite fails with PHPUnit 3.5.0 because of that problem.

Could not test abstract controllers classes in Zend Framework using mock of abstract request. Please take a look on pull.
