Update Information:

Minor security note * The DSN support added in 6.8.0 reflects the DSN back to
the user in an error message if it is invalid. If a DSN uses user-supplied input
(a very bad idea), it opens a distant possibility of XSS if the host app does
not escape output. In an abundance of caution, malformed DSNs are no longer
reflected in error messages. Changes * Don't reflect malformed DSNs in
error messages to avert any risk of XSS * Improve Simplified Chinese,
Sinhalese, and Norwegian translations * Don't use setAccessible in PHP >= 8.1
in tests * Avoid a deprecation notice in PHP 8.3 * Fix link in readme
