Added

• PHP patch updates. mullion php update [8.4] [--keep-old] [--check] and an Update to 8.4.x button per version on the PHP
  page (plus Update all, Check for updates, and a dot on the
  sidebar's PHP item) move an installed version to the newest patch of
  its branch — e.g. for a security release, which is tagged as such when
  php.net marks one. The new patch is installed the normal way (on
  macOS LDAP and pdo_dblib are rebuilt for it), the old php.ini is
  carried over with every path into the old version's folder re-pointed
  (shared modules, the CA bundle), Windows PECL DLLs are carried over,
  and the new PHP must start cleanly before the global version, pinned
  sites, their workers and the current link switch to it. The old
  patch is removed afterwards unless kept. A failure before the switch
  leaves the old version untouched. Checks are cached for 6 hours and
  are skipped quietly when offline.
• mullion php list shows (update: 8.4.x) next to outdated versions.

Changed

• The PHP page's install picker lists branches with the patch they
  install ("8.4 → 8.4.27"), and installing a branch you already have at
  an older patch offers the update instead of a second, parallel
  install. mullion php install 8.4 asks the same in a terminal.
