This PR will be merged at the end of this month. As the README says, we maintain support for Php Versions for six months beyond their end of life. That time has now arrived for 8.1.
Fix#4092. Change default value for Csv Reader autodetect line endings. Prior behavior can be enabled via `setTestAutodetect(true)`.
Change default value for Html Writer "better boolean" logic. Prior behavior can be explicitly enabled via `setBetterBoolean(false)`.
Change default for Xlsx Writer forceFullCalc option. Prior behavior can be explicitly enabled via `setForceFullCalc(null)`.
Fix#4269. In response to issue #456 PR #515, `forceFullCalc` was added to workbook.xml whenever `preCalculateFormulas` was set to false. It is not clear why this should have been needed; attempts to reproduce the error in the original 6.5-year-old issue are unable to reproduce it today. Nevertheless, it is, or was, there for a reason.
Today, the forceFullCalc option sets an option where formulas *might* not be recalculated when a cell used in the formula changes. I have not succeeded in finding a situation where it doesn't automatically recalculate, but it probably exists on complicated spreadsheets. To overcome this possibility, Excel offers a button which can be used to recalculate on demand. By itself, this might not be a terrible problem. However, it seems to come with the strange property that any spreadsheets opened at the same time as a forceFullCalc spreadsheet operate as if they too specified forceFullCalc. That *is* a problem, especially since users when closing a spreasheet affected in this way will be prompted to save it even when they haven't changed anything.
I am not willing to make a BC change at this time, although I might consider it in future (PR #4240). For now, I am adding a new property `forceFullCalc` with setter (no getter needed) to Xlsx Writer. That property can be `null` (default, in which case the Xml attribute is set as today), or `false` or `true` (in which case the Xml attribute will be set to the Writer attribute). I think that, when `preCalculateFormulas` is set to false, the calling application should give consideration to setting `forceFullCalc` to false as well. All other situations should just use the default.
