Features
--------------------
### Emulate `register_globals`
Add this lines to your application's entry point (like in `auto_prepend_file`):
```php
pollute();
// main routine...
```
If use the session, call `Gongo\MercifulPolluter\Session::pollute()` **after** `session_start()`:
```php
session_start();
/**
* $_SESSION['user_id'] = 'gongo'
*/
(new Gongo\MercifulPolluter\Session)->pollute();
var_dump($user_id); // string(5) "gongo"
// Reference global variables to session.
$user_id = 'taro';
var_dump($_SESSION['user_id']); // string(4) "taro"
```
### Emulate `magic_quotes_gpc`
If want to apply `magic_quotes_gpc`, call `Gongo\MercifulPolluter\Request::enableMagicQuotesGpc()`:
```php
enableMagicQuotesGpc();
$request->pollute();
// $_GET['foo'] => "1\'2\'3"
// $foo => "1\'2\'3"
```
