Since the value of php-ts-mode-php-executable is used locally and
remotely, I just set the buffer local value to the correct name.

  (connection-local-set-profile-variables
   'with-php84
   '((php-ts-mode-php-executable . "php84")))

  (connection-local-set-profiles
   '(:application tramp :machine "remotename")
   'with-php84)

The variable php-ts-mode-php-executable is effectively already providing
this feature, but the suggested change appears to remove it.
