In order to perform some introspection on a FormBuilder instance,
we need to be able to get its children. Almost everything is accessible
in this class, but the children are not.
This PR adds a all() method to respect the current API (get(), remove(),
...).
This demonstrates the issue described in symfony/symfony#3354. FieldType no longer has access to the child type's data_class option, which makes it unable to create the default closure for empty_data.

[Form] Moved logic of addXxx()/removeXxx() methods to the PropertyPath class
Bug fix: yes
Feature addition: no
Backwards compatibility break: no
Symfony2 tests pass: yes
Fixes the following tickets: #3732
Todo: -
The addXxx()/removeXxx() methods should now be called correctly in ChoiceType and CollectionType.
PropertyPath now favors addXxx()/removeXxx() over setXxx() for collections. For example:
```
$propertyPath = new PropertyPath('article.tags');
// Tries to use addTag()/removeTag() and only uses setTags() (et al.)
// if not found
$propertyPath->setValue($article, $tags);
```
For other languages than English or very irregular plurals, a custom singular can be set by separating it with a pipe:
```
$propertyPath = new PropertyPath('article.genera|genus');
```

Again, the failing build is not my fault.

[Form] Fixed handling of empty values in checkbox/radio/choice type
Bug fix: yes
Feature addition: no
Backwards compatibility break: no
Symfony2 tests pass: yes
Fixes the following tickets: #3839, #3366
Todo: -
This PR fixes the processing of checkboxes and radio buttons with empty "value" attributes as well as of expanded choice forms with empty values. Additionally, some unnecessary complexity has been removed of the new ChoiceList API.

You probably need to change some things in the CHANGELOG file too
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

No. This is an update of a previous post-2.0 PR, the CHANGELOG is still accurate.

well, doesn't it require changes to the description of previous changes related to the ChoiceList ? It does in the UPGRADE file so it is weird if the CHANGELOG does not require any change.

Feel free to check yourself :)
Setting a property path like "article.tags" will now automatically try to
favor addTag() and removeTag() over setTags(), if found. If you want to
set up a property path with an irregular singular that is not detected,
you can use "|" to separate the plural from the singular form in the
path: "article.genera|genus".
Another consequence of this commit is that the MergeCollectionListener has
been simplified a lot. Forms returning an array or a collection will
always result in adders/removers being called now without having to add
this listener.
