Title: [Form] Failing test for empty_data option BC break

This demonstrates the issue described in symfony/symfony#3354. FieldType no longer has access to the child type's data_class option, which makes it unable to create the default closure for empty_data.

We're still waiting for @bschussek to chime in on #3354, so there is no rush to merge this. Most users are expecting `data_class` to be all that's necessary to facilitate creation of a new form data object -- it's not clear if that is still the intended functionality after the recent form BC breaks, or if those breaks were an oversight.

If it is to remain intended functionality, I think we can keep this test around after the issue is resolved.
