Prior to this commit, the `ResourceHttpRequestHandler` would not
properly handle HTTP requests to **directories contained in JARs**.
This would result in HTTP 500 errors, caused by `FileNotFoundException`
or `NullPointerException`.
This can be tracked to webapp ClassLoader implementations in servlet
containers:
* in Jetty9x, fetching a directory within a JAR as a `Resource` and
getting its InputStream work fine, but attempting to `close()` it
results in a NullPointerException as the underlying stream is null.
* In Tomcat6x, one cannot fetch an InputStream for the same `Resource`
as it throws a FileNotFoundException.
This change adds more try/catch clauses and catches more Exception so as
to result in HTTP 200 OK responses instead of server errors. While this
is inconsistent because the same code path would result in HTTP 404 with
existing directories on the file system, there's no other simple way to
make those checks for resources contained in JARs.

Prior to this commit, the ResourceUrlEncodingFilter would fail with a
StringIndexOutOfBoundsException when:
* the current request has a servlet context
* the URL to encode is relative and is shorter than the context value
This change defensively checks for those lengths and delegates to the
parent implementation if necessary.

When used in combination with GzipResourceResolver, the
CachingResourceResolver does not properly cache results, since it only
takes the request path as a input for cache key generation.
Here's an example of that behavior:
1. an HTTP client requests a resource with `Accept-Encoding: gzip`, so
the GzipResourceResolver can resolve a gzipped resource.
2. the configured CachingResourceResolver caches that resource.
3. another HTTP client requests the same resource, but it does not
support gzip encoding; the previously cached gzipped resource is still
returned.
This commit uses the presence/absence of gzip encoding support as an
input in cache keys generation.

Prior to this commit, AntPathMatcher would not correctly combine a path
that ends with a separator with a path that starts with a separator.
For example, `/foo/` + `/bar` combined into `/foo//bar`.
Specifically, this commit:
- Removes the duplicated separator in combined paths
- Improves RequestMappingInfo's toString() representation
- Fixes Javadoc formatting in AntPathMatcher
- Polishes AntPathMatcherTests
- Polishes Javadoc in AbstractRequestCondition

(cherry picked from commit a80d0e87a4)
Revised HandlerMethod.getBeanType() impl for both web and messaging.
In addition, HandlerMethods get created with the internal BeanFactory now.
Issue: SPR-12832
(cherry picked from commit 898c24f)
This commit ensures that @NumberFormat can be used as a
meta-annotation, as was already the case for @DateTimeFormat.
In addition, this commit polishes FormattingConversionServiceTests and
MvcNamespaceTests.

(backported from commits df1d90f & c3408d8)
Prior to this change, location checks for serving resources would append
`/` to the location path it didn't already have one.
This commit makes sure not to append a `/` if the provided location is
actually a file.

Before this change, detection of X-Forwarded-* headers was only built
into ServletUriComponentsBuilder.
This change adds a new method for creating a UriComponentsBuilder from
an existing HttpRequest. This is equivalent to the fromUri method +
X-Forwarded-* header values.
Prior to this change, the `ResourceUrlProvider.getForLookupPath` method
would try to match handlers using the keySet order in the
handlerMappings Map. In case of several matches, the handler used for
the return value could vary, since the registration order in the
handlerMappings can't be guaranteed in the configuration.
This commit now collects all matching handlers and sort them using a
`PatternComparator`, in order to try each handler from the most specific
mapping to the least.
Issue: SPR-12647
Prior to this change, the ResourceUrlProvider would listen to
ContextRefreshedEvents and autodetect resource handlers each time. This
can cause issues when multiple contexts are involved and the last one
has no resource handler, thus clearing the previously detected ones.
This commit disables resource handlers auto-detection once some have
been detected with a refreshed context.
Issue: SPR-12592
Prior to this change, location paths used for resource handling would
not allow "non-cleaned, relative paths" such as
`file://home/user/static/../static/`. When checking if the resolved
resource's path starts with the location path, a mismatch would happen
when comparing for example:
* the location `file://home/user/static/../static/`
* and the resource `file://home/user/static/resource.txt`
This commit cleans the location path before comparing it to the resource
path.

This commit allows the use of "protcol relative URLs" (i.e. URLs without
scheme, starting with `//`), often used to serve resources automatically
from https or http with third party domains.
This syntax is allowed by RFC 3986.
Issue: SPR-12632
This commit fixes the default value for the contextRelative attribute of
a RedirectView, when this view is registered via a
RedirectViewController in XML. The value is set to true.
Note that the default value for this is correctly documented in
spring-mvc-4.1.xsd. Also, the documentation and implementation for its
javadoc counterpart also enforces true as a default value.
Issue: SPR-12607
This commit introduces the SpringHandlerInstantiator
class, a Jackson HandlerInstantiator that allows to autowire
Jackson handlers (JsonSerializer, JsonDeserializer, KeyDeserializer,
TypeResolverBuilder and TypeIdResolver) if needed.
SpringHandlerInstantiator is automatically used with
@EnableWebMvc and <mvc:annotation-driven />.
Issue: SPR-10768
Prior to this change, the ResourceUrlEncodingFilter would work well when
the application is mapped to "/". But when mapped to a non-empty servlet
context, this filter would not properly encode URLs and apply
ResourceResolver URL resolution for resources.
This commit makes sure that the lookup path is properly resolved in the
request URI, taking into account the servlet context.
