We now expose human readable resource descriptions based on RepositoryConfiguration and RepositoryConfigurationSource. Spring Boot uses those to describe problematic bean definitions in case it detects errors in the application setup.
We now log the module name during repository scanning to indicate the used module and to avoid confusion about duplicate initialization when a single module is used that supports both, imperative and reactive repositories.
We now render depending on the projection-collection attribute the appropriate return type that is used for example code to inject also alternate return types such as Mono/Flux for reactive module documentation.
We now return the content length as size of a Chunk if no Pageable has been used to create a Chunk. This makes the usage of a Chunk without an explicit Pageable work just like it was requested with the size of the given content.
We now skip PersistentPropertyPath instances pointing to auditing properties for which the path contains a collection or map path segment as the PersistentPropertyAccessor currently cannot handle those. A more extensive fix for that will be put in place for Moore but requires more extensive API changes which we don't want to ship in a Lovelace maintenance release.

We now catch the MappingException produced by trying to set auditing property paths containing null intermediate segments and ignore those. A less expensive (non-Exception-based) approach is going to be introduced for Moore as it requires API changes to the property path setting APIs.

PropertyAccessorClassGenerator now tries to look up the class to be generated first to potentially reuse an already existing one and avoid the recreation and registration of a same class which would trigger a Linkage error as a classloader cannot hold two classes with the same name.
The root of the problem is in the fact that the accessor instances are held in per instance caches in EntityInstantiators, so that multiple of those might try to create the same accessor class for a given domain type.
Previously, a module not exposing any entity identifying annotations would have claimed a repository definition and potentially overrode the bean definition of another store that was the proper claim in the first place. We have now changed this to abstain from a claim of the interface.
We' also tweaked the log output in the following cases:
1. If the module neither returns an identifying type nor entity identifying annotations, we now log a warning that a module does not support a multi-module setup and answer all assignment requests with false.
2. The info level warning indicating an interface has been dropped now reports which annotations or interface base types to use.

We now elevate the primary annotation from the scanned repository bean definition to the one created for the repository factory. This previously got lost as the former is hidden behind the RepositoryConfiguration interface that previously didn't expose the primary nature of the underlying bean definition.

Add ReactivePageableHandlerMethodArgumentResolver and extract shared code from imperative PageableHandlerMethodArgumentResolver into PageableHandlerMethodArgumentResolverSupport.

Add ReactiveSortHandlerMethodArgumentResolver and extract shared code from imperative SortHandlerMethodArgumentResolver into SortHandlerMethodArgumentResolverSupport.
Original pull request: #264.
We now explicitly rejects null values for the Sort parameters in the constructor of PageRequest to avoid the creation of invalid instances if the IDE validation of nullability constraints is not in use.
