[PHP][Symfony] To add PHP Symfony server generator

[wing328]

Description

We want to add a PHP Symfony server generator similar to what we've done for PHP Lumen, Silex, Slim.

Cloning the PHP Lumen generator is a good starting point.

If anyone is interested in making the contribution, please reply to let us know.

@Potherca thanks 👍

A good starting point is the Lumen Server Generator and the resource files

Let me know if you need any help.

As the priorities of my current employer has shifted, my time-frame on this has changed. It'll probably be another couple of months before I get to invest time in this issue.

In the meantime, if anyone wants to work on this, please reply to let us know.

@naelrashdeen thanks for offering help on this.

A good starting point is to look at the following PHP server generator and clone/copy one of them to be the base or starting point of the PHP Symfony generator.

Silex generator & resource files (templates)
Slim generator & resource files (templates)
Lumen generator & resource fils (templates)
Zend generator & resource files (templates)

Zend generator PR is another good starting point on exactly what changes are required in order to add another PHP generator to Swagger Codegen.

If you've further questions, please feel free to let us know.

@naelrashdeen do you need any help from us? There're other useful tricks such as overriding postProcessOperations to tweak the output.
