Fixed through falling back to the raw parameter type in the TypeDescriptor(MethodParameter) constructor, properly detecting the vararg array even in case of an unresolvable type variable, and through restoring getElementTypeDescriptor's original behavior for arrays, i.e. always returning a non-null descriptor.

The previous commit introduced a dependency on
Class.getDeclaredAnnotation() which is a Java 8 API.
This commit refactors AnnotationUtils.findAnnotation(Class, Class, Set)
to use Class.getAnnotation() in conjunction with
isAnnotationDeclaredLocally() in order to achieve the same desired
behavior.
Issue: SPR-11475
Prior to this commit, the implementations of findAnnotation() in
AnnotationUtils and getAnnotationAttributes() in AnnotatedElementUtils
favored inherited annotations and inherited composed annotations over
composed annotations that are declared closer to the starting class
passed to these methods.
This commit addresses this issue as follows:
- Refactored AnnotationUtils to use getDeclaredAnnotation() and
getDeclaredAnnotations() instead of getAnnotation() and
getAnnotations() where appropriate.
- AnnotatedElementUtils.doProcess() supports a traverseClassHierarchy
flag to control whether the class hierarchy should be traversed,
using getDeclaredAnnotations() instead of getAnnotations() if the
flag is true.
- Overhauled Javadoc in AnnotatedElementUtils.
Issue: SPR-11475
This commit introduces a new isInJavaLangAnnotationPackage(Annotation)
method in AnnotationUtils. This method is now used in AnnotationUtils,
AnnotatedElementUtils, and MetaAnnotationUtils to ensure that search
algorithms do no search for meta-annotations on annotations in the
"java.lang.annotation" package.
The following are some empirical results from this change:
- The number of times that the findAnnotation(Class,Class,Set) method in
AnnotationUtils is recursively invoked while executing
AnnotationUtilsTests drops from 51 to 29.
- The number of times that the process(AnnotatedElement) method in
AnnotationUtils.AnnotationCollector is recursively invoked while
executing AnnotationUtilsTests.getRepeatableFromMethod() drops
from 16 to 2.
- The number of times that the doProcess() method in
AnnotatedElementUtils is recursively invoked while executing the
"getAnnotationAttributes() On MetaCycleAnnotatedClass with missing
target meta-annotation" test in AnnotatedElementUtilsTests drops
from 23 to 5.
- The number of times that the findAnnotationDescriptor(Class,Set,Class)
method in MetaAnnotationUtils is recursively invoked while executing
the "findAnnotationDescriptor() on MetaCycleAnnotatedClass with
missing target meta-annotation" test in MetaAnnotationUtilsTests drops
from 16 to 8.
Issue: SPR-11483
Prior to this commit, AnnotationUtils.findAnnotation(Class, Class)
claimed to recursively search through annotations; however, only one
level of annotations was supported by the algorithm.
This commit alters the search algorithm so that nested meta-annotations
(i.e., meta-annotations on meta-annotations) are also supported.

Update ConcurrentReferenceHashMap to protect against references that
have been garbage collected but for some reason do not appear as a
`pollForPurge` result.
Also added purgeUnreferencedEntries() method to allow for programmatic
cleanup.
Issue: SPR-11440
JOpt 4.6 redeclared its nonOptionArguments() method from List<String> to List<?>, requiring us to select String arguments only as we do for regular option values already.
Issue: SPR-11359
This in particular allows for specifying "spring.getenv.ignore" and "spring.beaninfo.ignore" in a local way within the application, in case that JVM-level system properties are locked.

Update ResolvableType to unwrap Serialization wrapped TypeVariables
before calling the equals method.
This protects against the recent change in OpenJDK 8 (build 124)
which changed the TypeVariableImpl equals method such that it only
matches against other TypeVariableImpl instances.
Issue: SPR-11342
Change SerializableTypeWrapper proxies to directly call equals() methods
on the underlying Type, rather than possibly generating more wrappers.
This should help to improve performance, especially as the equals()
method is called many times when the ResolvableType cache is checked.
Issue: SPR-11335
Provided overloaded versions of `forField` and `forMethodParameter` that
accept a `ResolvableType` implementation type (as opposed to a Class).
Primarily added to allow resolution against implementation types that
have been created programmatically using `forTypeWithGenerics`.
Issue: SPR-11218
