If you really want to use the PPA
It seems that the package libpcre2-posix2 is trying to overwrite a library used by libpcre2-posix3.
Give apt the permission to overwrite the file.
sudo apt-get -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-overwrite" install libpcre2-posix2
Then, run sudo apt update, and sudo apt install -f and sudo apt upgrade.
If you don't want to use the PPA
The following command should remove the PPA and the conflicting packages.
sudo apt install ppa-purge
sudo ppa-purge ppa:ondrej/php
