Problem/Motivation

Drupal 10 supports PHP 8.3, but still recommends PHP 8.2. There are no outstanding critical issues with 8.3 as these were already resolved for Drupal 11's beta.

Proposed resolution

Recommend PHP 8.3.

Remaining tasks

Update the PHP version handbook page once the change is committed.

Release notes snippet

Drupal 10.3 is fully compatible with PHP 8.3. PHP 8.3 is now recommended and may offer notable performance improvements.

I updated https://www.drupal.org/docs/getting-started/system-requirements/php-requ... (although it was more in the scope of branching 10.3 than this issue, since it's about supported versions).

We could add a CR about the recommendation bump and performance impacts etc., so that we could link it from the page, but it looks like we didn't do that for 10.2 either so probably the release note and core UI message are sufficient.

Thanks everyone!
