Enabling leak detection for php module tests (.phpt)

The default run-tests.php script can run valgrind for you when executing tests to check for memory errors.

However, for some unexplicable reason, leak detection is not enabled.

To enable leak detection, you can manually edit the generated run-tests.php invocation of valgrind (you can search for valgrind -q for the invocation lines) and add --leak-check=full for full leak coverage (alternative settings for leak detection can be found here).
