Description:
------------
With the addition of tentative return types for PDO, we saw this new deprecation show up in generated mock code.

Declaration of Mock_PDO_f5cc810f::getAttribute(int $attribute) should be compatible with PDO::getAttribute(int $attribute): mixed

This requires the use of the new `mixed` return type available in php 8 only.

Isn't the return type `mixed` when omitted and therefore compatible with the declared tentative return type?

An no type is considered the same as a hypothetical "mixed|void", no type is not considered covariantly compatible with mixed.

In this case it's necessary to either generate the ": mixed" type, or to generate a "#[ReturnTypeWillChange]" attribute.

Ah, I was not aware of the attribute. That will have to be the work around if no return is mixed|void.
