Soap api v4_1 failing while calling any method
We are using SuiteCRM version 7.12.7 with PHP 8.0.13
while calling Soap api we are getting following error.

<faultstring xsi:type="xsd:string">Unknown error in SOAP call: service died unexpectedly</faultstring>
         <detail xsi:type="xsd:string"><![CDATA[<br />
<b>Fatal error</b>:  Uncaught TypeError: call_user_func_array(): Argument #1 ($callback) must be a valid callback, non-static method SugarWebServiceImplv4_1::login() cannot be called statically in C:\xampp80\htdocs\SuiteCRM-7.12.7\include\nusoap\nusoap.php:5437

Expected Behavior

The login soap v4_1 API should return session token and other api should work

Actual Behavior

It is returning error for all APIs
The function call_user_func_array throwing fatal error in PHP 8 if the function is not static. In the code call_user_func_array is calling method statically but all methods are not declared as non-static

Possible Fix

In include/nusoap/nusoap.php line number 5428 the control should not go into elseif ($delim == '..') this condition. it should go to else instead.

Steps to Reproduce

Call soap api service/v4_1/soap.php with parameters
