Introduce base class AbstractMethodMessageHandler for
HandlerMethod-based message handling.
Add MessageCondition interface for mapping conditions to messages
with support for combining type- and method-level annotation
conditions, the ability to match conditions to messages, and also
comparing matches to select the best match.

The key contract is MvcUrls. An instance is automatically created with
the Spring MVC namespace and the MVC Java config but can also be easily
created in any configuration.
Some example tests can be found in DefaultMvcUrlsTests.
Issue: SPR-10665, SPR-8826
MvcUriComponentsBuilder allows creating URIs that point to Spring MVC
controller methods annotated with @RequestMapping. It builds them by
exposing a mock method invocation API similar to Mockito, records the
method invocations and thus builds up the URI by inspecting the mapping
annotations and the parameters handed into the method invocations.
Introduced a new SPI UriComponentsContributor that should be implemented
by HandlerMethodArgumentResolvers that actually contribute path segments
or query parameters to a URI. While the newly introduced
MvcUriComponentsBuilder looks up those UriComponentsContributor instances
from the MVC configuration.
The MvcUriComponentsBuilderFactory (name to be discussed - MvcUris maybe?)
prevents the multiple lookups by keeping the UriComponentsBuilder
instances in an instance variable. So an instance of the factory could
be exposed as Spring bean or through a HandlerMethodArgumentResolver to
be injected into Controller methods.

Prior to this commit, @ControllerAdvice annotated beans would
assist all known Controllers, by applying @ExceptionHandler,
@InitBinder, and @ModelAttribute.
This commit updates the @ControllerAdvice annotation,
which accepts now base package names, assignableTypes,
annotations and basePackageClasses.
If attributes are set, only Controllers that match those
selectors will be assisted by the annotated class.
This commit does not change the default behavior when
no value is set, i.e. @ControllerAdvice().
Issue: SPR-10222
Before this change, async result handling on controller methods failed
to observe type-level annotations annotations. The issue was never
noticed until we started supporting type-level @ResponseBody and the
@RestController meta annotation.
Issue: SPR-10905
Includes revisions of MethodParameter and DependencyDescriptor (in particular towards a reference to the containing class). Also refines several ResolvableType method signatures.
Issue: SPR-9965
Prior to this commit, the template method createDataBinderFactory
would only allow ServletRequestDataBinderFactory as a return type.
This commit updates the method signature and allows
InitBinderDataBinderFactory, a superclass of the previous one.
Then other implementations can override this method and return
other InitBinderDataBinderFactory types.
Issue: SPR-10920
Refactor AbstractMessageConverterMethodArgumentResolver and
BridgeMethodResolver to use ResolvableType in preference to deprecated
GenericTypeResolver calls.
Issue: SPR-10980
A few noteworthy minor changes: LocaleContext.getLocale() may return null in special cases (not by default), which our own accessing classes are able to handle now. If there is a non-null TimeZone user setting, we're exposing it to all collaborating libraries, in particular to JSTL, Velocity and JasperReports. Our JSR-310 and Joda-Time support falls back to checking the general LocaleContext TimeZone now, adapting it to their time zone types, if no more specific setting has been provided. Our DefaultConversionService has TimeZone<->ZoneId converters registered. And finally, we're using a custom parseTimeZoneString method now that doesn't accept the TimeZone.getTimeZone(String) GMT fallback for an invalid time zone id anymore.

Renamed ResourceUrlMapper to ResourceUrlGenerator and refactored it
to be configured with Resource-serving HandlerMappings as opposed to
having them detected in the ApplicationContext through the
BeanPostProcessor contact.
Renamed and polished ResourceUrlEncodingFilter to ResourceUrlFilter
and added tests.
This change splits out resource transformation out from the
ResourceResolverChain so that chain is focused entirely on resource
resolution (as its name suggests). The invocation of transformers
is left as a separate step, it uses a different (recursive)
algorithm in any case and iterates over a different set of objects.
Also ResourceResolverChain is now limited strictly to methods that
a ResourceResolver should be able to use to delegate to remaining
resolvers.
Furthermore, ResourceResolverChain now maintains an internal index
of the "current" resolver so that resolvers don't have to pass the
chain when invoking it much like a (Servlet API) FilterChain works.
If the last resolver calls the chain again, a null value is returned.
Prior to this commit, the DispatcherServlet would send an error
response using the HttpServlet API when no Handler was found to
handle this request.
Now the DispatcherServlet can be configured to throw a
NoHandlerFoundException, when the throwExceptionIfNoHandlerFound
property is set to "true".
Those exceptions can be later on caught by default or custom
HandlerExceptionResolvers/ExceptionHandlers.

Also, StandardReflectionParameterNameDiscoverer calls "Parameter.isNamePresent()" now to return null (and pass on to the next discoverer) if no JDK 8 parameters are available. Note that this requires OpenJDK 8 b100 or higher to compile now.
Issue: SPR-10532
This change enables having @ResponseBody on the type-level in which
case it inherited and does not need to be added on the method level.
For added convenience, there is also a new @RestController annotation,
a meta-annotation in turn annotated with @Controller and @ResponseBody.
Classes with the new annotation do not need to have @ResponseBody
declared on the method level as it is inherited.
Issue: SPR-10814
MimeType is available in core-spring and does not include support
for quality parameters and media used in HTTP content negotiation.
The MediaType sub-class in org.springframework.http adds q-parameters.
Add a new <spring:argument> tag that cab be nested within
<spring:message> and <spring:theme>. The tag is based on the <fmt:param>
tag and uses conventions found throughout other Spring tags.

The following commit in 3.2.3 had a side effect on CNVR:
aaded7e30b
It appears that CNVR doesn't treat a request for "*/*" differently
from a request that does not request content types. Both should be
interpreted as "any content type is acceptable". This fix ensures
that CNVR treats these two cases the same way.
Issue: SPR-10683
This change involves a modification of the "writeContent" template method to include the "jsonPrefix" String instead of the "prefixJson" boolean flag. Since said template method has only been introduced in 3.2.2, this change should hopefully not be a problem.
