Document the behavior of constraints added to overridden properties in child classes

[xabbuh]

When one extends a class that defines validation constraints on one property, you are not able to override the validation constraints defined on the parent class by defining the same property with different constraints on the child class. All the defined constraints will be merged (see symfony/symfony#15950).

This is the related part from the Java Language Specification (see symfony/symfony#15950 (comment)):

The effect of constraint declarations is cumulative. Constraints declared on a superclass getter will be validated along with any constraints defined on an overridden version of the getter according to the Java Language Specification visibility rules.
