This commit ensures that only the HTML version of the reference
documentation is rendered for SNAPSHOT builds. This speeds up
significatly the build.

As of Gradle 4.0, project SourceSets can have multiple output
directories (one per programming language).
This commit fixes warnings that are logged when a single output dir
is considered by tasks.

This commit applies the Dependency Management Plugin to modules that
require it; right now Spring Framework is importing BOMs for Netty and
Reactor dependencies only.
Instead of applying those BOMs to all modules, they're applied only
where they're needed.

The main `build.gradle` file contains now only the common build
infrastructure; all module-specific build configurations have
been moved to their own build file.

This commit merges back the "spring-beans-groovy" module into the main
"spring-beans" one. The build is configured so:
* Java and Groovy sources are jointly compiled
* Kotlin sources are compiled after
With this change, the `MergePlugin` is not used anymore in the project
build and therefore is removed.
The `DetectSplitPackagesPlugin` wasn't applied so it's been removed as
well.

With this change, each subproject can configure its
build in a dedicated file like:
```
spring-core/spring-core.gradle
spring-web/spring-web.gradle
```

This commit configures Gradle build scans for the Spring Framework
build. Scans aren't performed for every build but can be enabled
with the following:
```
./gradlew build --scan
```

Includes general streamlining of dependency declarations with reduced version variables, direct use of EclipseLink 2.7 and its implicit JPA 2.2 dependency in spring-orm, mixed use of Hibernate 5.2.10 and 5.1.10 for integration tests, as well as an upgrade to Jetty 9.4.7 RC0 and a downgrade to Groovy 2.4.12 (since Groovy 2.5 won't be final in time for Spring Framework 5.0).

Bean-derived null values may still get passed into bean properties and injection points but only if those are declared as non-required. Note that getBean will never return null; a manual bean.equals(null) / "null".equals(bean.toString()) check identifies expected null values now. This will only ever happen with custom FactoryBeans or factory methods returning null - and since all common cases are handled by autowiring or bean property values in bean definitions, there should be no need to ever manually check for such a null value received from getBean.
