PHP 8 renames `php_gd2.dll` to `php_gd.dll`

This is both a heads-up and a kind feature request
PHP 8 renames
php_gd2.dll
file tophp_gd.dll
, so it is possible that when using Laragon, you might come across an error saying unable to load GD extension.That is because the file is renamed. I use Laravel to switch PHP versions, I was wondering if it would be possible to run some sort of a script to rename
gd2
togd
back and forth when the PHP.ini file is initialized by Laragon. If the php.ini file saysgd
, and if the file isphp_gd2.dll
, or the other way around, it would be amazing if Laragon could make this quick swap on behalf of the user.Thank you.

@Ayesh : Thank you for the heads-up. Laragon will automatically detects and updates that.
