Upgrade the symfony ORM pack

[melroy89]

While we did upgrade symfony to v7.3. But we didn't upgrade the symfony/orm-pack stack in Mbin. So I started to upgrade the ORM pack, see also: https://symfony.com/doc/current/doctrine.html#installing-doctrine

Then the file EnumType.php failed with errors (where previously deprecations), which I then also fixed..

Also array is no longer a valid ORN database type: https://www.doctrine-project.org/projects/doctrine-dbal/en/stable/reference/types.html#array-types
So I moved from array to json type.

According to this there are new types for arrays. But they use string-join (imploding) or JSON.
As one occurrence looks like a many-to-many relation, Collections (and join columns) should be used: www 1, www 2.

I guess they forgot to update this docs page: https://doctrine-dbal-rtd.readthedocs.io/en/latest/reference/types.html#array ..

We can I think just update this type to json I believe. Just like we how we use it with preferredLanguages

This is how this featuredMagazines gets converted to PostgreSQL .. just for info!

But what is the text content of one row?

Well since its now a text field. it just looks like this:

Only 5 users of the 270 million user rows have this filled in (on my server). But clearly kbin.social is down for years, so its not activity used either.
