[2.1] Support PHP 5.4 \SessionHandler
Bug fix: no
Feature addition: yes
Backwards compatibility break: no
Symfony2 tests pass: yes
Fixes the following tickets: -
Todo: -
This patch allows us to add services, like an encryption layer into any session handler without having to alter or inherit any code across any session handler, internal or custom.
The `\SessionHandler` class exposes internal PHP's native internal session save handlers like files, memcache, and sqlite by wrapping the internal callbacks through the class giving user-space the chance to intercept, override and filter them by inheriting from `\SessionHandler`. I've written a pretty nice use-case at http://docs.php.net/sessionhandler which really shows the power of it. I never considered how to make proper use of the `\SessionHandler` in Symfony2 until I wrote the code example you see in that documentation and also because of the `AbstractSessionStorage` base class got in the way.
It's really trivial to enable support for this in Symfony2 but requires to separate out the actual handlers because inheritance is not suitable.
Obviously, the feature will only work with internal PHP-extension provided handlers under PHP 5.4 and will already work in PHP 5.3 with any custom handler (since they all implement `\SessionHandlerInterface`). Symfony2 will also be the first framework to support these amazing features :-D
The necessary changes are really small but beautiful:
The basic idea is this: https://github.com/drak/symfony/commit/1d55d1ff148125762641a337acde7163d7936e90 removed inheritance and separates out the actual session handler callbacks - the part PHP processes internally.
This is supported by an internal proxy mechanism: https://github.com/drak/symfony/commit/10a36c901e9ee77255954539b2dc3e8920189002
In terms of BC, not much changes net from 2.0:
- We can restore the deprecated service ID: `session.storage.native`
- We add a new service ID `session.handler` (and configuration alias `handler_id`) for the actual session handlers. This defaults to the renamed `session.handler.native_file` session handler (same behaviour just new name and as it's a default there is no BC break).

Looks good to me. Can you update the CHANGELOG and UPGRADE file accordingly and start to update the documentation at symfony/symfony-docs? Thanks for your work, the session handling in Symfony2 is starting to become amazing!

@fabpot I will start working on documentation this week and get the CHANGELOG/UPGRADING committed shortly. I'll ping when done.
