Public bug reported:

Mahara: 22.10.0
DB: Postgres 14.3
OS: Linux 20.04
Browser: n/a

The use of "mixed" type is supported in PHP 8.0+.

It was introduced in this file:

https://reviews.mahara.org/c/mahara/+/12921/28/htdocs/lib/applicationset.php

with 2 functions:

1. current() : mixed
2. key() : mixed

With PHP 7.4, when configuring institutions with Moodle integration
(XML-RPC for example), the following error is received:

"PHP message: [WAR] 40 (lib/errors.php:529) [TypeError]: Return value of
ApplicationSet::current() must be an instance of mixed, instance of
Application returned at /var/www/site/lib/applicationset.php:45

A type should not be set for these functions until it's fully
implemented for PHP 8.0+.

I only found those 2 instances in Mahara 22.10
