A Week of Symfony #620 (12-18 November 2018)

This week, the second beta of Symfony 4.2 was published in preparation for its final release in two weeks. In order to simplify the maintenance of Symfony apps, we undeprecated the single-colon controller notation and also reverted the deprecation of --env and --no-debug console options.
