The OCI8 requirements page still says "OCI8 3.0 is included with PHP 8", which isn't true for PHP 8.4+ since the extension moved to PECL (the intro page already has the UNBUNDLED warning). This updates the sentence to say it's bundled with PHP 8.0 to 8.3 and has to come from PECL as of 8.4.0.

I only touched the requirements paragraph and left the build instructions alone, per the earlier discussion in #4103.

Fixes #4889

OCI8 marked as included in PHP 8.x, but actually unbundled in PHP 8.4
