This is a follow-up on commit fe4046 relaxing the expectation that a
ServletContext is present. Instead we check defensively and fall back
on PathExtensionContentNegotiationStrategy which can use JAF.
Issue: SPR-14577
Create an explicit heartbeat task with an experiration flag so that
it can be cancelled reliably vs relying on the ScheduledFutureTask
cancel method which may return true even if the task is already
running.

This change adds support for a target type in JsonPath assertions in
Spring MVC Test.
The existing assertValue(String expression, Object expectedValue)
transparently falls back on using an alternative JsonPath API that
allows specifying the target type to coerce to.
There is also a new overloaded method
assertValue(String expression, Matcher<T> matcher, Class<T> targetType)
for use with Hamcrest matchers where the target type can be specified.

(cherry picked from commit 7fdb892)
HttpEntityMethodProcessor should not throw IllegalArgumentExceptions for
invalid If-None-Match headers.
For those cases, this commit makes sure that both
`HttpEntityMethodProcessor` and `ServletWebRequest` have a consistent
behavior and stop processing the request as conditional and leave the
handler handle it.

This commit adds support for HTTP header field parameters encoding, as
described in RFC5987.
Note that the default implementation still relies on US-ASCII encoding,
as the latest rfc7230 Section 3.2.4 says that:
> Newly defined header fields SHOULD limit their field values to
US-ASCII octets

Since we have a dedicated section regarding Ehcache that is only
applicable to Ehcache 2.x, this commit clarifies that Ehcache 3.x is
JSR-107 compliant and the JCache support should be used with it
rather than attempting to configure the Ehcache 2.x support.
Commit 240f254 has introduced support for `java.util.Optional` in the
cache abstraction. If such type is present, the contained value is cached
if it is present.
This new feature slightly changed the semantic of `#result` that was
documented up till this commit as the "return value of the method
invocation". This is no longer true as `#result` for `Optional<T>`
refers to the `T` instance and not the `Optional` instance.
This commit clarifies both the javadoc and the documentation.
