Bug description:`yield from` incorrectly marks valid generator as finished

Description:
------------
The current implementation of the valid method doesnt properly take into
account the possibility that the inner generator could be executed
outside of the context of the outer generator. In this case, its saying
that the outer generator isnt valid because the inner generator isnt
valid, but in fact the outer generator still has more to execute.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

function g1() {
  yield 1;
  yield 2;
}

function g2($g1) {
  yield from $g1;
  echo "!\n";
  yield 3;
}

$g1 = g1();
$g2 = g2($g1);

while ($g2->valid()) {
  var_dump($g2->current());
  $g1->next();
}

Expected result:
----------------
I would expect the following:

int(1)
int(2)
NULL
NULL
NULL
...(infinite loop)

I say this because g2 got primed to the yield from statement, so it
should be returning for current whatever g1 is returning for current.
For a finished generator, this would be NULL.

Actual result:
--------------
int(1)
int(2)
