Verify that Jackson properly serializes to ISO-8601 format, which includes three potential timezone endings. Expand CI testing against both Jackson 2.10 and 2.11. Also test these profiles against JDK 8, 11, and 14.

Moved off Spring Framework deprecations for HttpMessageNotReadableException. This required some rearrangements of method signatures for types (hopefully) exclusively used by internal abstractions (some public, but not very friendly for user extension in the first place).
Switched to consistent use of Pageable.unpaged() instead of null. Switched to the use of new factory methods in Spring HATEOAS. Some Java 8 based improvements in request handling to simplify the implementation code. Deprecation of code that got obsolete due to the use of the factory methods.
Moved off some deprecations in Jackson APIs.
Removed a couple of unused imports. General avoidance of common warnings. Suppression where needed. Removed dead code in configuration.
When merging new data into a PersistentEntity, JsonNodes of array types were deserialized into immutable Lists, but the list is later mutated if the source and target arrays are of different sizes. This commit ensures that an array is deserialized into a mutable list.

We now rely on the MessageResolver capabilities of Spring HATEOAS to benefit of the optimizations in resource bundle resolution. Tweaked a couple of tests to make sure they properly use the resolver resorting to the default message the MessageResourceResolvable exposes.
Deserializer customizations for related resources (deserializing an instance from a URI) are not applied to the creator properties Jackson uses to create an entity instance in the first place (see [0] for details). We work around this now by tweaking the property instances used for that in their origin ValueInstantiator via reflection until the bug gets fixed.

Contrary to what's stated in the Javadoc of BackendIdConverter, BackendIdConverterHandlerMethodArgumentResolver now skips the invocation of ….fromRequestId(…) if no identifier path variable is found for the mapping of the method invoked.
MappedProperties now immediately drops non-writable properties when created for deserialization. Previously those properties would have to be annotated with @JsonProperty(access = Access.READ_ONLY) explicitly to avoid them being considered.
Previously the backend identifier derived from the URI was set as identifier on the object to be created in a PUT request. However, in case a custom entity lookup is used, this is not the identifier but an arbitrary property pointed to through user defined code, mostly a method reference.
We now use the newly introduced MethodInvocationRecorder API in Spring Data Commons to be able to obtain the property that is supposed to be used and set that to the value calculated. This requires the entity type for which the custom lookup is configured to be non-final as the invocation recording is build on top of proxies.

We're now able to correctly identify Map keys within JsonPatch paths so that e.g. people/Dave/name properly translates into a people['Dave'].name SpEL expression.
Streamlined the design of SpelPath to avoid duplicate parsing and properly express the difference between typed and untyped paths in the type hierarchy. Slightly refactored the type hierarchy so that only methods that make sense in either untyped or typed state appear on the instance returned (getLeafType(Class) was exposed on TypedSpelPath before, which was confusing).
The lookup of the RequestMappingInfo in exposeEffectiveLookupPathKey(…) yields null for CORS preflight requests to resources that do not support OPTIONAL explicitly. We now guard against that to avoid a subsequent NullPointerException.
Previously we assumed lookup types to always result in String based values. We now loosen that constraint to also allow other scalar types, mostly targeting numeric types like long and integer.
Aligned with general request attribute naming conventions and prefixed the one we now use with the class' name. Altered the local attribute name to EFFECTIVE_REPOSITORY_RESOURCE_LOOKUP_PATH.
Renamed the constant holding the name from …_KEY to …_ATTRIBUTE.
We now expose a partially resolved PathPattern to contain the explicit repository base path so that the subpaths can be grouped around the individual repositories exposed.

MappedProperties now exposes a factory method that uses the Jackson introspector for serialization (instead of deserialization) which now also includes read-only properties. Previously, read-only ones were not considered as they are excluded from the metadata if it is looked up for deserialization.
We now support adding a to a collection via JsonPatch expressions by using the collection's size as target index. Contrary to paths pointing to existing collection elements we cannot determine the type of the object to be created. Thus, we fall back to the common element type of all existing collection elements. We also reject indexes pointing to elements with an index greater than the current collection's size.
DomainObjectReader now aborts the recursive merges in case it encounters an entity that's described as @Immutable (just introduced in Spring Data Commons).
Fixed some generics and removed DomainObjectMerger as it's unused.

Adapted RepositoryRestMvcConfiguration to now create a shared fallback ObjectMapper and avoid to register it as Spring Bean. Adapted test cases that previously were relying on such a bean being present.
Adapted test cases to verify on the correct ALPS document structure (see spring-projects/spring-hateoas#665).
We now provide and configure a converter for String to LdapName conversion so Spring Data LDAP can be used with Spring Data REST without further configuration.
Original pull request: #290.
ExposureConfiguration exposes methods to register AggregateResourceHttpMethodsFilter and AssociationResourceHttpMethodsFilter (both applied by type or globally) to customize the supported HTTP methods by collection, item and association resources. It also provides shortcuts for common use cases like disabling PUT for item resources etc.
We now recommend to implement RepositoryRestConfigurer directly as its declared methods are now default methods. We also introduced a static factory method to easily create a configurer to customize RepositoryRestConfiguration via a Lambda expression.
Moved test case setups that use that deprecated API to the new one.
DelegatingHandlerMapping now implements MatchableHandlerMapping by selecting the a delegate based on the already implemented algorithm and then invoking the ….match(…) method in case the selected one is a MatchableHandlerMapping in turn.
Refactored the internals a bit to be able to reuse the selection algorithm from both ….getHandler(…) and ….match(…).
Removed Lombok constructor and accessor generation to avoid having to deal with the changed default in Lombok 1.16.20 not generating @ConstructorProperties by default anymore.
