Remove support for EOL Apache 2.0 and 2.2 in favor of 2.4+ (#14664)

Remove support for EOL Apache 2.0 and 2.2 in favor of 2.4+ (#14664)

Apache 2.2 has been marked as EOL in December 2017 and doesn't receive
security patches any longer. Also, most *nix distributions and packages
mostly support 2.4 as minimum by now.

On Windows, this removes the configure option --enable-apache2-2handler
and merges the --enable-apache2handler and --enable-apache2-4handler
into a single option with favoring the --enable-apache2handler.

- The upstream MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER is deprecated in favor of
MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER_MAJOR in apache2/ap_mmn.h
- The initial upstream MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER_MAJOR was 20111025 in Apache
2.4.0
- The upstream APLOG_USE_MODULE is always available since Apache 2.3.6
- The upstream CORE_PRIVATE is unnecessary and ignored since Apache
2.4.0

ext/mbstring: update to Unicode 15

Updates UCD to Unicode 15.1 (released 2023 Sept). The upcoming
Unicode 16 version will be released roughly on 2024 Sept.

Previously: 0fdffc18, #7502

UCD 15.1 `DerivedNormalizationProps` contains multiple properties in
the same line, which breaks the parser. This also updates the
`ucgendat.php` script to allow 2 or three fields in each line, and to
look for the `Cased` and `Case_Ignorable` properties in either of the
fields to mimic the previous behavior.

Bump minimum libpq version to 10.0 (#14628)

This bumps the libpq client-side PostgreSQL library minimum required
version from 9.1 to 10.0.

- Sanity check: PQlibVersion -> PQencryptPasswordConn (available since
libpq 10.0)
- PQsetErrorContextVisibility (available since libpq 9.6)
- lo_truncate64 (available since libpq 9.3), if 32-bit system doesn't
support lo_*64 functions, error is returned and functions are always
available

Additionally, the conditional functions usages in pdo_pgsql and pgsql
extensions that got piled up are cleaned and synced:

- pg_prepare (PQprepare available since libpq 7.4)
- pg_query_params (PQexecParams available since libpq 7.4)
- pg_result_error_field (PQresultErrorField available since libpq 7.4)
- pg_send_prepare (PQsendPrepare available since libpq 7.4)
- pg_send_query_params (PQsendQueryParams available since libpq 7.4)
- pg_set_error_verbosity (PQsetErrorVerbosity available since libpq 7.4)
- pg_transaction_status (PQtransactionStatus available since libpq 7.4)

The Windows libpq version is currently at version 11.4:

Add PHP_SETUP_ZLIB M4 macro (#14591)

This enables the zlib library (https://zlib.net/) from a single place to
match the minimum required version across the php-src. This provides a
possible simpler version bump in the future. Macro's 2nd and 3rd
arguments can pass additional actions whether zlib library is found or
not for the possible future adjustments in the ext/standard where also
zlib might be required.

Support for pkg-config was introduced in 1.2.3.1.
The minimum zlib version has been bumped to 1.2.3.1



* Bump minimum zlib version to 1.2.11

This is aligned with CentOS 8, which has 1.2.11 in the default packages.

* [skip ci] Move zlib version change to UPGRADING

This matches the OpenSSL style version change notice already done in
this file.
