It's currently not possible to get the information about which constructor argument is missing (except by doing regex in the exception message string). Having this information is useful when we want to have an input transformer without the need to set every fields to nullable.

For example with this flow: [request payload] -> [normalizer/unserializer] -> [dto] -> [validation], each field must be nullable to not have exception during the normalization and then we still need to validate, instead we could catch MissingConstructorArgumentsException, handle it and make a nice http exception.

Edit: related to #42502

That'd be for 5.4 yes. Can you please retarget?

Looks good to me, can you rebase on current 5.4?
Can you also add a note in the CHANGELOG of the component?

Followup to #42712.

Currently only the missing arguments are saved in the `MissingConstructorArgumentsException`, so there's no way of knowing which class is missing those arguments when nested objects are being deserialized. This PR adds this information to the exception.

Also, while working on this I've noticed that the `$missingArguments` argument accepts an array of missing arguments, but only one is ever passed. I'm not sure if this was done intentionally or by accident, but I've changed it so that only one is expected. Please let me know if this change is ok.

UPDATE:
I've added a new `MissingConstructorArgumentException` class which accepts only one argument and the class name and deprecated the `MissingConstructorArgumentsException` class. However, since the main goal of this PR is to add the class to the exception, I can revert the renaming part if you think the change is not worth it.

This PR is an improvment of #49013 and fix #42712.

She aims to fix the problem reported in #49013 indicating that the method `getMissingConstructorArguments()` of `\Symfony\Component\Serializer\Exception\MissingConstructorArgumentsException` class introduced in #42712 is returning only one missing arguments when there's more than one missing.
