[RFC] Deprecate 'views' directory in favor of 'templates' everywhere #24227
Description

| Symfony version | 3.4, 4.0 |
The proposal, according to the new directory structure for 3.4/4.0 applications, deprecate:
AcmeBundle/Resources/viewsin favor ofAcmeBundle/Resources/templates.%kernel.root_dir%/Resources/viewsin favor oftwig.default_path.%kernel.root_dir%/Resources/<BundleName>/viewsin favor oftemplates/bundles/<BundleName>.
the last two are ready, but we have not done the deprecation notice in 3.4 if the old path exists and it is not added manually to the twig.paths list.
It would eliminate future confusion about two different names with the same concept within the Symfony world. Same modus operadi, deprecate in 3.4 and remove in 4.0.
