    Hello CF7 Team and @takayukister,

    I was testing a WordPress site on PHP 8.2.
    I noticed that there is a PHP ERROR caused by CF7 Form.

    Reason –
    Call to undefined function create_function() in formatting.php
    (includes/formatting.php)

    PHP Documentation –
    https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.create-function.php
    (This function has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 7.2.0, and REMOVED as of PHP 8.0.0. Relying on this function is highly discouraged.)

    The Code with issue –
    (includes/formatting.php)

    $pee = preg_replace_callback( '/<(script|style|textarea).*?<\/\\1>/s', create_function( '$matches', 'return str_replace("\n", "<WPPreserveNewline />", $matches[0]);' ), $pee );

    The updated code that I suggest –

    $pee = preg_replace_callback(
    			'/<(script|style|textarea).*?<\/\\1>/s',
    			function($matches) {
    				return str_replace("\n", "<WPPreserveNewline />", $matches[0]);
    			},
    			$pee
    		);

    This code is compatible with PHP 7/8.
    I request you to pls include this small bug fix in future updates of CF7.

    Regards
