Since PHP 8.1, calling the Reflection*::setAccessible() methods is no longer necessary as reflected properties/methods/etc will always be accessible. However, the method calls are still needed for PHP < 8.1.

As of PHP 8.5, calling the Reflection*::setAccessible() methods is now formally deprecated and will yield a deprecation notice, which will fail test runs. As of PHP 9.0, the setAccessible() method(s) will be removed.

With the latter in mind, this commit prevents the deprecation notice by making the calls to setAccessible() conditional.

Silencing the deprecation would mean, this would need to be "fixed" again come PHP 9.0, while the current solution should be stable, including for PHP 9.0.
