• Fix tests to support new PHPUnit version
• Remove useless type check tests

Would that be "minimum" dependences? PHP 8.4 is still very new. If this is a minimum, what does 8.4 offer over earlier versions that would make it mandatory?

(I selfishly ask since I'm presently unable to install PHP 8.4 due to my preferred package manager — MacPorts — not keeping up with the latest releases lately.)
