recode_file -- Recode from file to file according to recode request

## Description

``bool recode_file` (string request, resource input, resource output)`

Recode the file referenced by file handle `input` into the file referenced by file handle `output` according to the recode `request`. Returns `FALSE`, if unable to comply, `TRUE` otherwise.

This function does not currently process filehandles referencing remote files (URLs). Both filehandles must refer to local files.

Example 1. Basic recode_file() example
    $input = fopen ('input.txt', 'r');
    $output = fopen ('output.txt', 'w');
    recode_file ("us..flat", $input, $output);
