Remove support for open polymorphic serialization in
kotlinx.serialization web converters and codecs in order
to prevent serialization handling suitable for Jackson
or other general purpose Java JSON libraries.
This will probably need further refinements for collections
for example, and could ultimately be fixed when
kotlinx.serialization will provide a dedicated function to
evaluate upfront if a type can be serialized or not.
Closes gh-26298
This commit introduces the following changes:
- Converters/codecs are now used based on generic type info.
- On WebMvc and WebFlux, kotlinx.serialization is enabled along
to Jackson because it only serializes Kotlin @Serializable classes
which is not enough for error or actuator endpoints in Boot as
described on spring-projects/spring-boot#24238.
TODO: leverage Kotlin/kotlinx.serialization#1164 when fixed.
Closes gh-26147
Flow decoding is not supported yet since it depends on
kotlin/kotlinx.serialization#1073, but it will be
enabled when this issue will be fixed.

- The compiler is configured to retain compatibility with Kotlin 1.3.
- Explicit API mode is not yet enabled but could be in the future.
- Some exceptions thrown by Kotlin have changed to NullPointerException,
see https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-22275 for more details.

This commit removes the JUnit 4 dependency from all modules except
spring-test which provides explicit JUnit 4 support.
This commit also includes the following.
- migration from JUnit 4 assertions to JUnit Jupiter assertions in all
Kotlin tests
- migration from JUnit 4 assumptions in Spring's TestGroup support to
JUnit Jupiter assumptions, based on org.opentest4j.TestAbortedException
- introduction of a new TestGroups utility class than can be used from
existing JUnit 4 tests in the spring-test module in order to perform
assumptions using JUnit 4's Assume class

This commit removes the constraint from type variables in
PropertyResolver, JdbcOperations and RestOperations
Kotlin extensions in order to get null-safety inferred
from the type declared by the user.
Closes gh-22687
This commit also removes WebFlux non-extension functions in favor of
regular Kotlin extensions leveraging ParameterizedTypeReference parameter.

This commit polishes Kotlin nullable support by reusing
MethodParameter#isOptional() instead of adding a new
MethodParameter#isNullable() method, adds
Kotlin tests and introduces Spring Web Reactive
support.
