Summary of Changes

This pull request (PR) updates the lists of files and folders to be deleted on update in script.php to the latest changes in the 6.0-dev branch since the last PR of this kind for that branch, which was #45038 . In details these changes are:

• New 5.x update SQL scripts "5.4.0-2025-04-23.sql" and "5.4.0-2025-05-10.sql" for both kinds of databases, and "5.3.1-2025-04-27.sql" for PostgreSQL only.
• Files "CaseFolding.php", "CaseFoldingData.php" and "CaseFoldingDataInterface.php" in folder "libraries/vendor/algo26-matthias/idna-convert/src/NamePrep" from PR [5.3] Major update idna converter #45140 , which was reverted later in the 5.3-dev branch but not in the 6.0-dev branch as we do that dependency update with 6.0.
• Folder "libraries/vendor/typo3" and all subfolders and files in it from PR [6.0] Removing typo3/phar-stream-wrapper #45256 .
• Folder "libraries/vendor/voku" and all subfolders and files in it from PR [6.0] Remove direct dependency on voku/portable-utf8 #44654 .
• Folder "libraries/vendor/symfony/polyfill-iconv" and all subfolders and files in it from the same PR [6.0] Remove direct dependency on voku/portable-utf8 #44654 .
• Files "administrator/language/en-GB/plg_behaviour_compat.ini" and "administrator/language/en-GB/plg_behaviour_compat.sys.ini" from PR [6.0] Introduce Joomla 6.0 compatibility plugin #45480

In addition, it adds exceptions for the files and folders which belong to the Joomla 5 Backward Compatibility plugin to the deleted_file_check.php script so that these folders will not be deleted by the "deleteUnexistingFiles" method in script.php, as these folders will already be deleted by the "uninstallExtensions" method in script.php.

Finally, it adds exceptions for the "administrator/language/en-GB/guidedtours.joomla_whatsnew_5_4.ini" and "administrator/language/en-GB/guidedtours.joomla_whatsnew_5_4_steps.ini" files to the deleted_file_check.php script, as we do not want to deletedf these files on update, see also PR #45512 .
