phpwcms v2.0.0-beta.2

Second beta of the phpwcms 2.x line. Raises the runtime baseline to PHP 8.4 and fixes form, file-usage and revision engine defects found since beta.1.

⚠️ Breaking

• PHP 8.4 baseline: minimum PHP raised from 8.2 to 8.4 across composer.json (platform 8.4.27, require >=8.4), setup/upgrade.php (MIN_PHP_VERSION), the Dockerfile, the Makefile fallback, README badges and the documentation set. PHP 8.2 reaches end of life on 2026-12-31.

🐛 Fixed

• Skipped revisions on upgrade: the revision engine now runs every pending revision and stores its markers in phpwcms_sysvalue.
• Obsolete sysvalue_tstamp column and Bad Behavior table: dropped by the revision engine and r554; the marker INSERT no longer fails under strict NO_ZERO_DATE.
• Form file size and max: HTML5 field types persist size and max again.
• Article content part type: the target content part type is kept on form submit.
• File usage: files referenced from custom fields are detected again.
• PHP 8.4 deprecations: removed the obsolete curl_close() calls in setup/upgrade.php, update.api.php and mod_feedimport.

📦 Dependency Updates

• Composer: tinymce/tinymce 8.10.1, league/commonmark 2.10.7, phpstan/phpstan 2.3.4, current simplepie and roave/security-advisories snapshots
• Node: ace-builds 1.45.2, bootstrap-icons 1.13.2, flag-icons 7.6.0, video.js 8.24.2
