refactored the session provider

replaces #934 by making possible to override the default bags, but more importantly, it removes the storage definition from the inside of the session one to the outside.

Easier user access

In Silex 1.3, it's "harder" to get the user from the security layer as the `security` service has been deprecated. The code is already available in the security trait, but if you are not using it, you need to use a somewhat "complex" expression in templates to access it (see #1152)

This PR moves the code from the trait to the security service to make it available to everyone.

One question though: can we deprecate the trait `user()` function? It is not useful anymore after this PR.

Changed Doctrine page to use utf8mb4 as sample

MySQL's `utf8` character set is a little broken, and does not cover 4-byte UTF-8 characters. In most cases it will quietly truncate the string whenever it sees one, saving incomplete text data.

In  5.5.3 they introduced `utf8mb4` to fix this inconsistency, and given that it's been 5 years, it's probably safe to encourage people to use it. If their MySQL installation is older, it should be easy for them to find the distinctive string and change it back to `utf8`, and for a new project.

Additional details can be found in the equivalent [pull-request for Symfony-2](https://github.com/symfony/symfony-docs/pull/5100).

Add OPTIONS request routing directly to Application

I think it's important to add this HTTP Method directly to the application because it's often called automatically by browsers during AJAX requests. Meaning it's required that anyone sending AJAX requests to Silex will have to implement some kind of OPTIONS handling. I realize that you can use the match and method calls to do this same thing but those make routing OPTIONS requests less obvious.
