[Form] Fixed option support in Form component
Bug fix: yes
Feature addition: no
Backwards compatibility break: yes
Symfony2 tests pass: yes
Fixes the following tickets: #3354, #3512, #3685, #3694
Todo: -
This PR also introduces a new helper `DefaultOptions` for solving option graphs. It accepts default options to be defined on various layers of your class hierarchy. These options can then be merged with the options passed by the user. This is called *resolving*.
The important feature of this utility is that it lets you define *lazy options*. Lazy options are specified using closures that are evaluated when resolving and thus have access to the resolved values of other (potentially lazy) options. The class detects cyclic option dependencies and fails with an exception in this case.
For more information, check the inline documentation of the `DefaultOptions` class and the UPGRADE file.
@fabpot: Might this be worth a separate component? (in total the utility consists of five classes with two associated tests)

"The important feature of this utility is that it lets you define lazy options. Lazy options are specified using closures"
What about options that are closures? are those differentiated?

@beberlei Yes. Closures for lazy options receive a Symfony\Component\Form\Options instance as first argument. All other closures are interpreted as normal values.

I'm wondering if these classes should go in the Config component. My issue with it is that it would add a required dependency to the Config component and that the Config component mixes many different things in it already (the loader part, the resource part, the definition part...)

Sharing the Options class would be great, and its more then one class so why not give it its own Component folder?
Filesystem is just one class, and that has its own folder.
Great job on the class bschussek 👏

@fabpot Any input?

@fabpot Apart from the decision about the final location of DefaultOptions et al., could you merge this soon? This would make my work a bit easier since this one is a blocker.

@bschussek: Can you rebase on master? I will merge afterwards. Thanks.
