10.3.0

Backup archives are now encrypted while they are being built (#1978)

Previously the archive was written unencrypted and then rewritten with encryption by the EncryptBackupArchive listener, writing large backups to disk twice. Encryption is now applied per file while the zip is built, so the archive is only written once. The configuration (backup.backup.password and backup.backup.encryption) and the resulting archives are unchanged.

Upgrade notes

• Spatie\Backup\Listeners\EncryptBackupArchive is deprecated and no longer registered. If you registered this listener yourself, remove that registration. The class is kept and still works for backwards compatibility.
• If you suppressed encryption by unregistering the listener while keeping a password configured, set backup.backup.encryption to 'none' instead.
• If encryption cannot be applied (for example libzip without AES support), the backup now fails with BackupFailed instead of silently producing an unencrypted archive.
