Description:
------------
According to PHP documentation, arguments $dateType and $timeType of IntlDateFormatter::__construct() should accept null values.

On PHP 8.1, when using null values, a deprecation error is triggered:
> PHP Deprecated:  IntlDateFormatter::__construct(): Passing null to parameter #2 ($dateType) of type int is deprecated

Test script:
---------------
<?php
$formatter = new IntlDateFormatter('de_DE', 'Europe/Berlin', null, null, 'dd-MM');
echo $formatter->format(new DateTime('2012-07-02T22:44:03Z'));
