Fixes the real errors Plugin Check reports for the wpgraphql-debug-extensions zip. One commit per fix:

• Requires PHP: 7.4+ → 7.4. Plugin Check only accepts a plain version. 7.4 matches readme.txt and composer.json (^7.4 || ^8.0).
• ABSPATH guards in activation.php, deactivation.php, and src/Plugin.php.

License

• Licensed under GPL-2.0-or-later. The plugin header said BSD-0-Clause (linking to BSD-3-Clause), readme.txt said GPL-3, and composer.json said GPL-2.0. All three now say GPL-2.0-or-later, like the other plugins, and the plugin ships the same GPL-2 LICENSE file they do.
• "Tested up to" stays 6.9, the newest WordPress version the CI matrix tests. Plugin Check will keep reporting "6.9 < 7.1" until WordPress 7.x is added to the matrix.

Testing

• Built the zip with composer archive and ran wp plugin check wpgraphql-debug-extensions locally in wp-env, using the same options as the workflow in ci: run Plugin Check on the built plugin archive #830. The only error left is "Tested up to: 6.9 < 7.1".
• php -l passes on the changed files.
