A Week of Symfony #888 (1-7 January 2024)

This week, Symfony development activity focused on the translation files used by the Validator and Security components, completing many missing translations and normalizing the file contents. Meanwhile, Symfony 7.1 added support for custom HTTP status codes in the MapQueryParameter attribute, introduced a new ServiceCollectionInterface and added Stringable interface support in all constraints. Lastly, we simplified the versioning of Symfony Docs.
