Since Spring 4.1, a CacheResolver may be configured to customize the way
the cache(s) to use for a given cache operation are retrieved. Since a
CacheResolver implementation may not use the cache names information at
all, this attribute has been made optional.
However, a fix was still applied, preventing a Cache operation without a
cache name to be defined properly. We now allow this valid use case.

This commit introduces new 'cacheNames' attributes (analogous to the
existing attribute of the same name in @CacheConfig) as aliases for the
'value' attributes in @Cacheable, @CachePut, and @CacheEvict.
In addition, SpringCacheAnnotationParser.getAnnotations() has been
refactored to support synthesized annotations.

Previously, a Bean implementing `AutoCloseable` (or `Closeable`) was
always destroyed regardless of its bean definition. In particular, the
documented way of disabling the destruction callback via an empty String
did not work.
AutoCloseable beans are now treated pretty much as any other bean: we
still use the presence of the interface to optimize the check of a
destroy method and we only auto-discover the method name to invoke if
the inferred mode is enabled.

Covers ReflectionUtils.doWithMethods as well as affected annotation post-processors.
Includes an extension of MethodMetadata for the detection of @Bean default methods.

If a sub-class of Future (such as ListenableFuture) is used as a return
type and an exception is thrown, the AsyncUncaughtExceptionHandler is
called. Now checking for any Future implementation instead of a faulty
strict matching.

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.

If an `@EventListener` annotated method returns a Collection or an Array,
each individual items are now published as an event instead of publishing
one event with said collection.

Deprecated CommonsPoolTargetSource (supporting commons pool 1.5+) in
favor of CommonsPool2TargetSource with a similar contract.
Commons Pool 2.x uses object equality while Commons Pool 1.x used
identity equality. This clearly means that Commons Pool 2 behaves
differently if several instances having the same identity according to
their `Object#equals(Object)` method are managed in the same pool. To
provide a smooth upgrade, a backward-compatible pool is created by
default; use `setUseObjectEquality(boolean)` if you need the standard
Commons Pool 2.x behavior.

Previously, the `@Order` annotation was managed in an inconsistent way
when placed at the implementation level. For simple beans, it was
discovered properly but wasn't for beans requiring a proxy.
OrderComparator.SourceProvider now explicitly allows to return several
order sources; the default implementation returns not only the factory
method (if any) but also the target class if it happens to be different
from the class of the bean.

Previously, the exception-handler attribute was not taken care of when
task:annotation-driven is used in AspectJ mode. This commit provides the
expected behavior.
Issue: SPR-12619
Update the application event listener infrastructure to support events
that are processed according to a transactional phase.
Introduce EventListenerFactory that can be implemented to provide support
for additional event listener types. TransactionalEventListener is a new
annotation that can be used in lieu of the regular EventListener. Its
related factory implementation is registered in the context automatically
via @EnableTransactionManagement or <tx:annotation-driven/>
By default, a TransactionalEventListener is invoked when the transaction
has completed successfully (i.e. AFTER_COMMIT). Additional phases are
provided to handle BEFORE_COMMIT and AFTER_ROLLBACK events.
If no transaction is running, such listener is not invoked at all unless
the `fallbackExecution` flag has been explicitly set.
Issue: SPR-12080
Add support for annotation-based event listeners. Enabled automatically
when using Java configuration or can be enabled explicitly via the
regular <context:annotation-driven/> XML element. Detect methods of
managed beans annotated with @EventListener, either directly or through
a meta-annotation.
Annotated methods must define the event type they listen to as a single
parameter argument. Events are automatically filtered out according to
the method signature. When additional runtime filtering is required, one
can specify the `condition` attribute of the annotation that defines a
SpEL expression that should match to actually invoke the method for a
particular event. The root context exposes the actual `event`
(`#root.event`) and method arguments (`#root.args`). Individual method
arguments are also exposed via either the `a` or `p` alias (`#a0` refers
to the first method argument). Finally, methods arguments are exposed via
their names if that information can be discovered.
Events can be either an ApplicationEvent or any arbitrary payload. Such
payload is wrapped automatically in a PayloadApplicationEvent and managed
explicitly internally. As a result, users can now publish and listen
for arbitrary objects.
If an annotated method has a return value, an non null result is actually
published as a new event, something like:
@EventListener
public FooEvent handle(BarEvent event) { ... }
Events can be handled in an aynchronous manner by adding `@Async` to the
event method declaration and enabling such infrastructure. Events can
also be ordered by adding an `@Order` annotation to the event method.
