Driven by the need for implementing Bean Validation 1.1's "releaseInstance" method in SpringConstraintValidatorFactory, as a direct counterpart to the use of AutowireCapableBeanFactory's "createBean(Class)" in "getInstance".

This is built into ConcurrentTaskExecutor and ConcurrentTaskScheduler now, automatically detecting the JSR-236 ExecutorService variants and adapting to them.

In the course of this effort, our joinTransaction() support has been overhauled to work for shared EntityManagers as well, since an unsynchronized shared EntityManager will nevertheless be scoped for the current transaction but not automatically join it (as per the JPA 2.1 spec). In the JTA case, we'll simply create an unsynchronized target EntityManager and will upgrade it to a synchronized one (later in the same transaction, if necessary) through an implicit joinTransaction() call. In the JpaTransactionManager case, we'll unbind the primary target EntityManager and will expose an unsynchronized EntityManager instead, upgrading it the same way as with JTA, with the primary EntityManager in that case just serving as a vehicle for transaction begin/commit/rollback calls.
For extended EntityManagers, we've just added further combinations to the existing variants: application-managed EntityManagers which may nevertheless auto-join transactions (EntityManagerFactory.createEntityManager with SynchronizationType.SYNCHRONIZED), and container-managed EntityManagers which might opt for not auto-joining transactions (@PersistenceContext with synchronizationType=UNSYNCHRONIZED).

Known limitations:
* Spring's SingleConnectionFactory and CachingConnectionFactory do not support createContext calls for JMSContext creation at this point. Note that the JMSContext model bypasses the point of a Connection/Session pool anyway; this will only really work with a native JMS 2.0 ConnectionFactory and provider-specific pooling such as in an EE environment.
* JmsTemplate has no out-of-the-box support for send calls with an async completion listener. Note that a CompletionListener can be specified in a custom ProducerCallback implementation if really necessary.
There is no special support for the simplified JMSContext API, and likely never will be: JMSContext can be used from a native ConnectionFactory directly. @Inject JMSContext isn't supported due to rather involved rules for defining and scoping the injected context which are quite at odds with the Spring way of doing these things. We strongly recommend JmsTemplate instead, or @Resource ConnectionFactory with a createContext call within a Java 7 try-with-resources clause (as shown in the specification). After all, JMSContext has primarily been designed with EE's one-session-per-connection model and JTA transactions in mind, not with Spring-style use of a native JMS provider and native JMS transactions.

This commit removes the suppression of warnings in Servlet and Portlet
mocks since such suppression is no longer necessary with the upgrade to
version 3.0 of the Servlet specification.
Specifically, EhCacheFactoryBean extends CacheConfiguration now and therefore inherits all configuration properties of the underlying EhCache version. This reduces the need for catching up with new EhCache properties on our side.
