Create a new section in the meta-data called "hints" where users can
provide hints about a given property. The most basic use case for now
is to provide a list of values that a property can have. Each value may
have a description.
This sample JSON provides a basic example for a property called `foo.mode`
that exposes 3 values: "auto", "basic" and "advanced".
```
"hints": [
{
"id": "foo.mode",
"values": [
{
"value": "auto",
"description": "Some smart description."
},
{
"name": "basic"
},
{
"name": "advanced"
}
]
}
]
```
This information can be read by tools (such as IDE) and offer an
auto-completion with the list of values.

If java.io.tmpdir is configured to a directory that does not exist,
calls to File.createTempFile will fail with an IOException with the
message "The system cannot find the path specified". Unfortunately,
the path the was specified is not included in the message.
Rather than trying to automatically create the directory in what may
be a misconfigured location, we now include the value of
java.io.tmpdir in our own exception's message. Hopefully this will
help users to figure out what they've done wrong.

Provide a static utility method to get the Spring Boot version based on
the implementation version of SpringApplication's package. Similar to
Spring Frameworks' SpringVersion class.

Add AnsiPropertySource which allows named ANSI codes to be resolved
and update ResourceBanner to include it.
This commit also deprecates constants defined in AnsiElement and
replaces them with AnsiStyle, AnsiColor and AnsiBackground enums.

These files are modified by Eclipse for some reason when you change files
like Thymeleaf HTML files. `META-INF/maven/**` has been added to the
default exclusion.

Update `ApplicationPidFileWriter` to support a 'fail on write error'
properties which allows the user to exit the application if the PID
file cannot be written.
This commit also deprecates `spring.pidfile` in favor of
`spring.pid.file` so that the new property can be added without overlap.
Fixes gh-2764
Previously, when an exception was thrown by a Controller in an
application deployed to a servlet container the exception that was
handled would be Spring Framework’s NestedServletException rather than
the exception thrown by the application. Furthermore, when an exception
was thrown or the response was used to send an error, the
javax.servlet.error.request_uri request attribute would not be set. This
differed from the behaviour in an executable jar/war where the exception
would be the one thrown by the application, and the request_uri
attribute would be set.
This commit updates ErrorPageFilter, which is only involved in a servlet
container, to unwrap a NestedServletException so that it’s the
application’s exception that’s handled, and to set the request_uri
attribute in the event of an exception being thrown or an error being
sent.
Closes gh-3249
Previously, an address that ended in a "/" would result in the virtual
host being an empty string. This was inconsistent with setVirtualHost
which would map an empty string to "/".
This commit updates the address parsing logic to call setVirtualHost
rather than assigning the value directly to this.virtualHost. This
ensures that the special handling for an empty string is applied
consistently.
Closes gh-3304
By default, SpringApplication attempts to deduce the application class
by looking for a main method in the stack. This does not work when
the application is launched by a servlet container via
SpringBootServletInitializer as there's either no main method in the
stack, or the main method is that of the servlet container, rather
than the application.
This commit updates SpringBootServletInitializer to configure the
main class of the SpringApplication that it creates to be the
application's SpringBootServletInitializer subclass. This is done
prior to calling configure, so the main class can still be specified
by the application if required.
Closes gh-3061
