This is (somewhat) a duplicate of #249. |

@paulomarg please can you merge this (and hopefully #236 too) before releasing the major version number that you will be doing following #262. That'll reduce the number of major version numbers you need to produce. |

WHY are these changes introduced?
The current PHP version constraint (
^8.0 || ^8.1 || ^8.2) doesn't make sense. It looks like the package is intended to support PHP versions8.0.xand8.1.xand8.2.xwith unknown status given to8.3.xand8.4.xand so on. However, the constraints used currently is equivalent to^8.0and supports all versions of8.x.x.https://jubianchi.github.io/semver-check/#/^8.0/8.1.45
WHAT is this pull request doing?
This pull request refines the supported versions to include only those that seem to be intended. When new versions are released, these can be added to the list.
Type of change
I'm marking this as a 'patch' because we're only dropping support for future versions of PHP which don't currently exist. Also, given that the most recent pull request merged dropped support for PHP 7.x, and this hasn't been tagged / released yet, this is a great time to fix this bug too.
