Imagick is added to PHP 8.2 now and will soon be available on previous versions as well. Closing this topic out.

> Hi @drkanukie - Imagick has been compiled with PHP 8.2 and is available. There is still no way to add a module yourself. We’re in the process of going back and adding those to prior PHP versions, but for now, if you need Imagick, we’d recommend using PHP 8.2.
