Summary: pecl/mcrypt is not compatible with PHP version 8.0.0

Type: Bug
Package: mcrypt related
Operating System: FROM php:8.0.0-apache-buster
PHP Version: 8.0.0

It's a bit weird, but the configuration is
<php>
<min>7.2.0</min>
<max>8.0.0</max>
<exclude>8.0.0</exclude>
</php>
which effectively means it's compatible with >=7.2.0 and <8.0.0 (aka 7.2-7.4).
So it isn't actually compatible with 8.0 yet.
Though it looks like there's been some recent activity to add support...
But please, 8.0 was *just* released. People and (non-core) extensions need time to catch up. Be
patient.

Description:
------------
I use official image docker "php:8.0.0-apache-buster"
I actually need mcrypt on my current production servers stack.
I wanted to test and bench php8.0.0 but the installation of mcrypt fails at the beginning:
"pecl/mcrypt is not compatible with PHP version 8.0.0"
But the package description https://pecl.php.net/package/mcrypt says that it is
supposed to be compatible : "PHP Version: PHP version 8.0.0 or older"
Test script:
---------------
apt-get install -y libmcrypt-dev
pecl update-channels
pecl install mcrypt-1.0.3
Expected result:
----------------
installation ok
Actual result:
--------------
pecl/mcrypt is not compatible with PHP version 8.0.0
