A Week of Symfony #908 (20-26 May 2024)

This week, we continued polishing Symfony 7.1 features and fixing some of its deprecations to prepare for its stable release next week. Meanwhile, we introduced a Symfony Jobs section so you can find a great job or post your own job to hire talent from the community. Lastly, we updated the code repository to create the branch for Symfony 7.2, which will be released at the end of November 2024.
