v4.5.0 will support PHP 8.1 or later

We have dropped PHP 8.0 support in the 4.5 branch on GitHub.
CI 4.5.0 will require PHP 8.1 or later.

Dropping PHP 8.0 support was requested to CI 4.4.
https://github.com/codeigniter4/CodeIgni...ssues/7320
However, this was not feasible in 4.4 because it was assumed that many users would use 8.0 or lower.

PHP 8.0 will be end of life at 26 Nov 2023.

We encourage all of you ugrade to PHP 8.1 or later!
