Migrate infrastructure to PHP 8.0

There are a number of improvements and new features that come with PHP 8.0. In general, running an up-to-date version of PHP will speed up your site it also prevents bad actors from taking advantage of security vulnerabilities that could be lurking in older PHP versions.
