TheWitness f1eef20a25 ci: fix bootstrap redeclare fatal, add coverage driver, bump PHP floor to 8.2 (#243)
- tests/bootstrap-unit.php: stop stubbing validateRequestVars() globally; monitor_controller.php declares it unconditionally, so the stub caused a Cannot redeclare fatal once a test loaded plugin source via loadPluginSource()/monitor_test_load().
- .github/workflows/plugin-ci-workflow.yml: add coverage: pcov to the setup-php step so the Pest --coverage-clover report has a driver to run against.
- Document the PHP 8.2 floor (matrix is already 8.2-8.4) in copilot-instructions.md, the php-developer agent, and the hexagonal-monitor ADR, replacing stale PHP 8.1 references now that PHP 8.1 is no longer tested.
- Verified apache2/libapache2-mod-php do not need to be re-added to the Install System Dependencies step: apache2 ships preinstalled on the ubuntu-latest runner image and shivammathur/setup-php configures the matching Apache PHP module for the selected matrix version.
