TODO
- [x] submit changes to the documentation
I've seen myself implementing a few times a REMOTE_USER based authentication listener, as a large part of security modules for Apache (Kerberos, CAS, and more) are providing the username via an environment variable.
So I thought this could benefit the whole community if directly included in the framework. It is very similar to the X509AuthenticationListener, and basing the RemoteUserAuthenticationListener on the AbstractPreAuthenticatedListener is relevant and very convenient.
Using the X509AuthenticationListener could be possible, but it is confusing to use it directly when your authentication is not certificate based.
Please let me know if I need to update anything.
Regards

unify constructor initialization style throughout symfony

In almost all classes symfony uses property initialization when the value is static. Constructor initialization is only used for things that actually have logic, like passed parameters or dynamic values. IMHO it makes the code much more readable because property definition, phpdoc and default value is in one place. Also one can easily see what the constructor implements for logic like overridden default value of a parent class. Otherwise the real deal is just hidden behind 10 property initializations. One more advantage is that it requires less code. As you can see, the code was almost cut in half (210 additions and 395 deletions).
I unified it accordingly across symfony. Sometimes it was [not even consistent within one class](https://github.com/symfony/symfony/blob/master/src/Symfony/Component/Config/Definition/BaseNode.php#L32). At the same time I recognized some errors like missing parent constructor call, or undefined properties or private properties that are not even used.
I then realized that a few Kernel tests were not passing because they were deeply implementation specific like modifying booted flag with a custom `KernelForTest->setIsBooted();`. I improved and refactored the kernel tests in the __second commit__.
__Third commit__ unifies short ternary operator, e.g. `$foo ?: new Foo()`. __Forth commit__ unifies missing parentheses, e.g. `new Foo()`.
