Not entirely sure - the Obsoletes in php8 might still give hints that
php7-should not be present, as it's an obsolete package. so zypp might very
well try to get PHP8 in place.

I'd argue, with PHP8 not ready to step in the shoes of php7, it should not
obsolete php7-*, but only conflict: where needed; this gives much more control
to the user and not to the solver trying to find a solution
