ext-sodium PHP7.4

[bavade]

I use a dependency that require ext-sodium: * .
But in the PHP7.4 environment compiler tell me that this library is missing from the system.

Step to reproduce:

• require "lcobucci/jwt": "^3.4|^4.0"
• deploy the project on a PHP7.4 standard environement
• you get the composer error

I've been having the same issue here is what I have found: lib sodium is no longer a PECL extension, it's a compile time option so has to be enabled when php is compiled.

Looks like the option has been added for 7.2 but that would not work for 7.3 or 7.4

php-docker/package-builder/build.sh

Line 68 in 0a50b38

if [ "${SHORT_VERSION}" == "72" ]; then

Looks like #533 they have included support for 7.4 and 8.0, though that would break 7.2 & 7.3 support.
