Since SPR-14522, the web reactive framework supports checkNotModified
features. This commit aligns the existing MVC infrastructure with
web reactive's behavior.
Because of the new Servlet 3.0 baseline, some constraints
aren't relevant anymore and duplicate code has been removed in
`HttpEntityMethodProcessor`.
Issue: SPR-14659
This is a follow-up on commit 3b95e0b relaxing the expectation that a
ServletContext is present. Instead we check defensively and fall back
on PathExtensionContentNegotiationStrategy which can use JAF.

This commit adds Smile and CBOR Jackson HttpMessageConverters
and make it possible to create Smile and CBOR ObjectMapper via
Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder, which now allows to specify any
custom JsonFactory.
Like with JSON and XML Jackson support, the relevant
HttpMessageConverters are automaticially configurered by
Spring MVC WebMvcConfigurationSupport if jackson-dataformat-smile
or jackson-dataformat-cbor dependencies are found in the classpath.
Issue: SPR-14435
HttpEntityMethodProcessor should not throw IllegalArgumentExceptions for
invalid If-None-Match headers.
For those cases, this commit makes sure that both
`HttpEntityMethodProcessor` and `ServletWebRequest` have a consistent
behavior and stop processing the request as conditional and leave the
handler handle it.

xmlunit 2.1.0 is the latest release for xmlunit.
Most of the xmlunit functionality used within spring-framework
was done through the xmlunit 1.x helper class
`org.custommonkey.xmlunit.XMLAssert`.
As of xmlunit 2.0.0 most of the XML comparison methods are done
through hamcrest matchers exposed by the xmlunit-matchers
library. In some cases during the migration, the matchers
had to be customized with custom `NodeMatcher` or
`DifferenceEvaluator` instances in order to keep the assertions
correct (they were performed with xmlunit 1.x previously).

This commit also removes the corresponding deprecated Servlet MVC variant and updates DispatcherServlet.properties to point to RequestMappingHandlerMapping/Adapter by default.
Issue: SPR-14129
As of 4.3 ResourceHttpRequestHandler delegates to the configured
ContentNegotiationManager, or one created internally, to look up
the media type for are resource.
This commit ensures the internally created ContentNegotiationManager is
correctly injected with the ServletContext through which it can perform
lookups as before.
Also the ServletPathContentNegotiationStrategy now checks the
ServletContext first and then delegates to its parent the
PathContentNegotiationStrategy and not vice versa. This is
consistent with how handleNoMatch (also in the same class) works
and also matches how ResourceHttpRequestHandler worked before 4.3.
Issue: SPR-14368
This commit sets the response content type to
"text/event-stream;charset=UTF-8". Even if the SSE spec says that the
encoding should always be UTF-8 and that specifying the charset is
optional, we're setting it in all cases, since some containers might use
the default encoding "ISO-8859-1" and confuse HTTP clients.
Issue: SPR-14407
This commit updates AbstractHandlerExceptionResolver to only log at the
WARN level exceptions that are actually resolved by the
ExceptionResolver.
In case developers wish to log each time an ExceptionResolver is called,
a DEBUG level log is still available.
Issue: SPR-14392
When comparing multiple matching @RequestMapping's, the HTTP method
condition has the lowest precedence. It's mainly about ensuring an
explicit mapping wins over an implicit (i.e. no method) one.
As of 4.3 HTTP HEAD is handled automatically for controller methods
that match to GET. However an explicit mapping HTTP HEAD allows an
application to take control.
This commit ensures that for HTTP HEAD requests the HTTP method
condition is checked first which means that an explicit HEAD mapping
now trumps all other conditions.
Normally we look for the most specific matching @RequestMapping.
For HTTP HEAD we now look for the most specific match among
@RequestMapping methods with a HEAD mapping first.
