WikiEditor edit sampling code triggers 'PHP Deprecated: Invalid characters passed for attempted conversion, these have been ignored' on PHP7.4+

Description

Found when trying to enable PHP 7.4 as voting in Wikimedia production branches.

The inEventSample() code just blindly passes through the $sessionId input, but EventLogging expects this to be a hex string as it immediately uses it as such, and with PHP 7.4+ this is now enforced:
