Check if given string starts with specified substring.
Binary and multibyte safe.

@param string $string Input string
@param string $with Part to search inside the $string
@param bool $caseSensitive Case sensitive search. Default is true. When case sensitive is enabled, $with must exactly match the starting of the string in order to get a true value.
@return bool Returns true if first input starts with second input, false otherwise
Check if given string starts with specified substring . Binary and multibyte safe .
