 Looking at the source code
 [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/blob/ba943e113d3b31b121f77a2d30aebe14b047c69d/src/wp-
 includes/shortcodes.php#L57], it's not clear which parameters are required
 for add_shortcode $callback function.

 If you have any functions/methods that have required parameters after
 optional parameters, you will get a deprecation notice in PHP 8.

 {{{
 Required parameter $shortcode_tag follows optional parameter $content
 }}}

 The deprecation does not apply if there are types declared on the optional
 parameters, and the default values are null.
