Previously our support for the HTTP DELETE method on item resources was requiring a repository's findOne(…) method to be available and exposed. However, the latter might not be desirable as the support of GET and HEAD requests for item resources depends on that.
We now changed that to only checking that a findOne(…) method is declared on the repository as the implementation of RepositoryEntityController.deleteItemResource(…) requires it to be present to be able to trigger the events that intercept deletes for a particular type.
