The .env file from release uses quoted values like 'localhost'
but sed patterns were looking for unquoted values, causing
database credentials to not be updated.
Release zip contains .env directly, not .env.example. The sed commands
to update database credentials were being skipped because the file check
looked for .env.example first, which doesn't exist in published releases.
Releases use opensourcepos.VERSION.HASH.zip naming format, not
opensourcepos-VERSION.zip. This fix fetches the actual asset URL
from the GitHub API and extracts the correct directory name.
The install script was failing on Ubuntu 22.04 because PHP 8.2 is not
available in default repositories. This fix checks if the requested
PHP version is available, and if not, adds the ondrej/php PPA which
provides all supported PHP versions.
