Added HandlerMethodArgumentResolver implementations for Pageable and Sort exposing a new default set of properties (page, size, sort) to resolve pagination and sorting information from the request. To mimic the legacy behavior we expose a (deprecated) LEGACY constant in PageableHandlerMethodArgumentResolver. Clients should move to the new properties structure ASAP. Added unit tests to verify old and new defaulting behavior.
Introduced new annotations @SortDefault (with @SortDefaults wrapper annotation) and @PageableDefault (superseding the legacy @PageableDefaults). The new annotations have more speaking attribute names and the HMAR implementations transparently alias the generic value attribute into a more semantic one (size).
The HMAR implementations implement Spring HATEOAS' UriComponentsContributor to be able to turn Pageable / Sort instances back into URIs created through the MethodLinkBuilderFactory API in Spring HATEOAS.
Extracted common API between legacy PageableArgumentResolver and PageableHandlerMethodArgumentResolver into common helper class.
Upgraded to Spring Hateoas 0.5.0.BUILD-SNAPSHOT.
