[Feature Request]: Add php version parameter to upgrade.php when having more php version installed

[zulasch]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

when having multiple PHP versions installed, the upgrade is only using the default called "php" in my case I have php = 8.0xx php81 = php 8.1 php82 = php 8.2 php83 = php 8.1

so I need to specify the version for the script:

php83 upgrade.php

but the upgrade.php has hardcoded the php version.

The solution is to modify the upgrade.php script and replace all php with php8.3

here are some examples for the errors:

` Composer detected issues in your platform:

Your Composer dependencies require a PHP version ">= 8.2.0". You are running 8.0.30.

PHP Fatal error: Composer detected issues in your platform: Your Composer dependencies require a PHP version ">= 8.2.0". You are running 8.0.30. in /home/asset/public_html/vendor/composer/platform_check.php on line 24

Something went wrong with your backup. Aborting! `

Or

`

STEP 4: Backing up database:

-- In ProviderRepository.php line 208:

Class "Laravel\Socialite\SocialiteServiceProvider" not found

Something went wrong with your backup. Aborting! `

Describe the solution you'd like

Maybe there can be a parameter like

php83 upgrade.php --php-executable /usr/bin/php83

to specify

Describe alternatives you've considered

Find & replace all php findings with php83 (or what version you need)

Or maybe we can just use $argv[0] - whatever you invoked the upgrade script with. Though I don't remember whether or not PHP mangles the $argv array on your behalf. Maybe there's some other environment variable or constant that specifies what the current CLI interpreter is? Well, whatever, let's say we somehow figure that out. So now we know what exact name you invoked the script with.

Then, if you said php8.3 upgrade.php, all of the instances where we say php within the script would instead be php8.3?

Then we don't even need a new command-line parameter.

It's not in the $argv array. But it is in a particular constant. In messing around with things, it looks like it should be:

escapeshellarg(PHP_BINARY)

Which puts single-quotes around the command (to better handle spaces in filenames, like we have on Mac and Windows).
