* Move Antora-based documentation underneath src/main/antora.
* Put Antora build process behind a maven profile so it doesn't run on standard CI jobs.
* Refine build process so that final document includes injected build properties.
* Drop epub artwork since we no longer publish that.
See #2876
This commit introduces support for Kotlin Value Classes which are designed for a more expressive domain model to make underlying concepts explicit. Spring Data can now read and write types that define properties using Value Classes.
The support covers reflection based instantiation of Kotlin inline class, nullability and defaulting permutations as well as value classes with generics.
Closes: #1947
Original Pull Request: #2866
This avoids having to touch modules to add something like ImportRuntimeHints(AuditingHints.ReactiveAuditingRuntimeHints.class) to the enabled auditing annotations.
Original Pull Request: #2624
We provide an initial set of runtime hints required to spin up data repositories on GraalVM native image.
Additionally we skip synthetic types during type inspection.

* Added comments for review and clarification.
Original Pull Request: #2624
Custom collection support is now centralized in ….util.CustomCollections. It exposes API to detect whether a type is a map or collection, identifies the map base type etc.
Support for different collection implementations is externalized via the CustomCollectionRegistrar SPI that allows to define implementations via spring.factories. The current support for Vavr collections has been moved into an implementation of that, VavrCollections.
Unit tests for custom collection handling and conversion previously living in QueryExecutionConverterUnitTests have been moved into CustomCollectionsUnitTests.
Fixes#2619.
