Symfony Core Team Updates

I have a lot of exiting news for you today.

First, I've very happy to announce that long time contributors Robin Chalas and Maxime Steinhausser are formally joining the core team. With more than 200 pull requests each, it was time to recognize their impact on the project and let them get to the next level. Robin gets merge privileges on the Console, Security, and SecurityBundle components. Maxime gets them on Config, Console, Form, Serializer, DependencyInjection, and HttpKernel.

Ryan Weaver also gets merge access to the Security component and SecurityBundle. Ryan worked a lot on simplifying those components, but for some reasons, he didn't get merge privileges on those. That's fixed now!

Core team member Jakub Zalas takes over the Intl component, and Charles Sarrazin gets the LDAP component (he wrote it in the first place).

It is also time to thank past core team members who have spent a lot of their time on Symfony but recently moved on. Bernhard Schussek and Abdellatif Ait boudad resigned from their core team member status. I want to thank them for all the work they have done on Symfony. Their dedication and work is much appreciated. Thank you!
