Doc PR symfony/symfony-docs#11705

The PR adds Symfony\Component\DomCrawler\Form::getName method.

The method is actually a syntax sugar but can improve DX when dealing with tests. For example, in the snippet

$client = static::createClient();
$crawler = $client->request('GET', '/post/hello-world');
$form = $crawler->selectButton('submit')->form();

$form['my_form[name]'] = 'Fabien';
$form['my_form[subject]'] = 'Symfony rocks!';

the prefix in field name (my_form) is form name, which is generated by Symfony automatically. The method, added in the PR helps to get that name in a most obvious way.
