Prior to this commit, SpEL's CompoundExpression omitted the null-safe
syntax in AST string representations of the selection and projection
operators.
To address this, this commit implements isNullSafe() in Projection and
Selection.

Prior to this commit, if a Spring Expression Language (SpEL) expression
referenced the root context object via the #root or #this variable, we
inserted a checkcast in the generated byte code that cast the object to
its concrete type. However if the root context object's type was
non-public, that resulted in an IllegalAccessError when the compiled
byte code was executed.
VariableReference.getValueInternal() already contains a solution for
global variables which inserts a checkcast to Object in the generated
byte code instead of to the object's concrete non-public type.
This commit therefore applies the same logic to #root (or #this when
used to reference the root context object) that is already applied to
global variables.
Closes gh-32356
To improve consistency and avoid confusion regarding primitive types
and their wrapper types, this commit ensures that we always use class
literals for primitive types.
For example, instead of using the `Void.TYPE` constant, we now
consistently use `void.class`.
Prior to this commit, SpEL's Indexer incorrectly requested conversion
to wrappers instead of primitives when setting an element in a
primitive array.
This commit addresses this by requesting primitive conversion -- for
example, conversion to `int.class` instead of `Integer.class` when
setting a value in an `int[]` array.
For greater clarity, this commit also switches from using `TYPE`
constants in wrapper classes to primitive class literals -- for
example, from `Integer.TYPE` to `int.class`.
Closes gh-32147
Since SpEL is no longer "in progress", this commit removes the obsolete
InProgressTests class and moves all non-duplicated test cases to other
test classes.
