[Form] Made FormView and ChoiceView properties public for performance reasons
Bug fix: no
Feature addition: no
Backwards compatibility break: **yes**
Symfony2 tests pass: yes
Fixes the following tickets: -
Todo: -
This PR changes the access to properties of `FormView` and `ChoiceView` objects from getters to direct property accesses. On [my example form](http://advancedform.gpserver.dk/app_dev.php/taxclasses/1) this improves rendering performance for **300ms** with PHP templates and **550ms** with Twig on my local machine.
Unfortunately, this breaks BC both with 2.0 and with the current master in Form Types and PHP templates. Twig templates are not affected by this change.
2.0:
```
$formView->set('my_var', 'foobar');
$formView->get('my_var');
$formView->getChild('childName');
$formView['childName'];
```
master:
```
$formView->setVar('my_var', 'foobar');
$formView->getVar('my_var');
$formView->get('childName');
$formView['childName'];
```
this PR:
```
$formView->vars['my_var'] = 'foobar';
$formView->vars['my_var'];
$formView->children['childName'];
$formView['childName'];
```
Should we add methods to keep BC with 2.0?
The second part of this PR contains improvements to the rendering of choice fields. These gain another **~500ms** for PHP templates and **80ms** for Twig. These improvements are BC, unless you overwrote the block "choice_widget_options" in your form themes which then needs to be adapted.
**Update:**
The PR now includes a BC layer for 2.0.

@bschussek couldn't we keep the getters and setters for BC even if the rendering accesses the public properties directly ?

@stof A BC layer for 2.0 is now included. People who upgraded to master already unfortunately need to adapt their code.
