Fix error when adding new lineitem on PHP8

olayiwola_compucorp requested to merge olayiwola_compucorp/lineitemedit:MAE-988-fix-empty-amount into master

This PR fixes an error that occurs when adding a new lineitem to a contribution.

Before

The user is unable to add a new lineitem. lineitem2

After

The user is able to add a new lineitem. lineitem1

Technical Details

This issue is caused by an invalid Type operation at https://lab.civicrm.org/extensions/lineitemedit/-/blob/master/CRM/Lineitemedit/Util.php#L510

Assuming $updatedAmount = "40.0"

and CRM_Utils_Array::value('fee_amount', $updatedContribution, 0) = ""

It would try to do "40.0" - "", This would only throw a notice in PHP7.4 and treat the empty string as 0, but in PHP8.0+ this is not valid and would throw the error Error: Uncaught TypeError: Unsupported operand types: string - string.

Comment

PHP 8.0 and CiviCRM 5.51.3
