I'm not a fan of the php change, I'm very worried that it's going to
silently break many of my users if I ever update to it.  Would be nice
if it could be made optional.

The attached draft patch adds an mk.conf option PHP_MULTIVERSION,
default off.  This is work in progress -- limited to php82 for now.

What's the status of this? While discussing with some of my users why I haven't updated SmartOS trunk packages for a while, in part due to the php issues, one of them said that the changes would affect over 400 of their servers, so I'm keen to find a way forward that doesn't immediately break them on "pkgin upgrade".

Thanks,
