[masteradhoc]

What?

Removes three calls to ReflectionProperty::setAccessible() / ReflectionMethod::setAccessible() for PHP 8.1+ in the test suite.

Why?

See: https://www.php.net/manual/de/reflectionmethod.setaccessible.php

Since PHP 8.1, reflection properties and methods are accessible without calling setAccessible( true ), making the call a no-op. As of PHP 8.5, calling it is deprecated and emits a PHP Deprecated notice, which was showing up as noise in test runs (tests/class-two-factor-core.php:168, :2374, tests/providers/class-two-factor-totp.php:457).

How?

Deleted the three now-redundant setAccessible( true ) lines. No behavior change — the reflection objects were already accessible without it.

Testing Instructions

1. Run the plugin's PHPUnit suite on PHP 8.5.
2. Confirm the ReflectionProperty::setAccessible() is deprecated / ReflectionMethod::setAccessible() is deprecated notices no longer appear.
