Since the upstream extended the security support for PHP, original deprecated
and expiration date was prolonged in the Makefile but I think it makes no sense
to have deprecation and expiration set to date 18 months in advance.
It is really annoying to see these warning on each update of each PHP extension
and every day in daily security run output.

For example this is really useless and just makes each user of PHP 8.1 to
scroll every day to see something useful in "packages with security
vulnerabilities" section of an e-mail:

It can be easy to overlook something important.
The current PHP 8.1 deprecation messages make no good and are just plain spam
for the next 12 months. Therefore, I suggest removing DEPRECATED and
EXPIRATION_DATE from the Makefile and adding them again next summer, 6 months
before EOL.
