You can supposedly still use 4.5 4.6 on Big Sur if you do the following but I have not tested it on Little Snotch, 
works fine for personal software and others ...

codesign -dvvv littlesnitch.package name
Save the team identifier
Boot into recovery mode
Open terminal and type the following...
spctl kext-consent add <team identifier>
Reboot into normal user mode and install version 4
