----------
[Doctrine] [Form] EntityType+EntityChoiceList supports grouping choices
Bug fix: no
Feature addition: yes
Backwards compatibility break: no
Symfony2 tests pass: yes
Fixes the following tickets: #1735
Per the discussion in #1735, `EntityType` does not immediately support grouping options, though I updated support for it in `EntityChoiceList` in fb9d951b1d.
This PR accomplishes the following:
* Adds optional `group_by` property to `EntityType` that supports either a `PropertyPath` or a `\Closure` that is evaluated on the entity choices
* Support for groups is added via the constructor in `EntityChoiceList`
* Groups are created prior to `EntityChoiceList#loadEntities` via a new `groupEntities` function
* Added tests for `EntityChoiceList`
* Added test for `EntityType` `group_by` support
*There is an alternative version that only modifies `EntityType`, but that requires the addition of `EntityType#buildView(...)`, which is messy, IMO: https://github.com/ericclemmons/symfony/compare/master...1735-entity_type_group_by*

I didnt run the tests, but generally this looks very good and is a good extension.
