Beta Branch prep for PHP 8.4 support in 130.00beta01

prep for PHP 8.4 support in 130.00beta01

- prep for PHP 8.4 newly supported AEGIS encryption algorithms, AEGIS-128L and AEGIS-256 AEGIS Encryption with PHP Sodium Extension by first upgrading libsodium from 1.0.18 to 1.0.20 Releases · jedisct1/libsodium
- libsodium 1.0.19 also completely rewrote their AES-GCM implementation for better performance as well

AEGIS is an AES-based family of authenticated encryption algorithms that are significantly faster than ubiquitous algorithms such as AES-GCM and CHACHA20-POLY1305. The Sodium extension in PHP 8.4 supports AEGIS-128L and AEGIS-256 encryption algorithms if the Sodium extension is compiled with libsodium 1.0.19 or later. The two encryption algorithms in the AEGIS family, AEGIS-128L and AEGIS-256, are 2-3 times faster than AES-GCM, and 3-4 times faster than the CHACHA20-POLY1305 algorithms. They leverage hardware AES acceleration on x86_64 and aarch64 (64-bit ARM architecture) CPU architectures.
