Spring MVC now treats Flux<String> + "application/json" as (serialized)
text to be written directly to the response as is. This is consistent
with the rendering of String + "application/json".

InvalidDefinitionException has been introduced in Jackson 2.9 to be
able to differentiate invalid data sent from the client (should still
generate a 4xx HTTP status code) from server side errors like beans with
no default constructor (should generate a 5xx HTTP status code).

This commit adds support for reactive library types to be returned
directly from controller methods adapting them either to a
ResponseBodyEmitter (streaming) or DeferredResult (non-streaming).
The reactive libraries supported are the ones that can adapted to a
Reactive Streams Publisher through the ReactiveAdapterRegistry.
Issue: SPR-15365
Revise Javadoc on AsyncHandlerMethodReturnValueHandler to clarify its
main purpose is to prioritze custom async return value handlers ahead
of built-in ones. Also replace the interface from built-in handlers
which are prioritized already.
Remove DeferredResultAdapter and ResponseBodyEmitterAdapter --
introduced in 4.3 for custom async return value handling, since for
5.0 we will add built-in support for reactive types and the value of
these contracts becomes very marginal.

This commit changes `ResourceTransformerSupport` to look for the
`ResourceUrlProvider` in the current request if none is configured on
the resource transformer itself.
Issue: SPR-15369
Prior to this commit, the `VersionResourceResolver` implementations of
`resolveUrlPathInternal` would delegate to the resolver chain but would
never use the give result if the current request didn't match a
configured version strategy pattern.
This is a problem if the resolver supposed to resolve the resource path
is configured after a `VersionResourceResolver` in the resolver chain;
this means that other resolver never gets to participate in the result
of the chain.

Includes a new overloaded ModelAndView constructor with an HttpStatus argument, as well as a HandlerMethodArgumentResolverSupport refactoring (revised checkParameterType signature, actually implementing the HandlerMethodArgumentResolver interface).
Issue: SPR-15199
This commit introduces a `useRegisteredExtensionsOnly` property that
indicates whether classes that use the `MediaTypeFactory` for supplying
default media types can do so.
- In classes that were introduced in Spring 5.0, the
`useRegisteredExtensionsOnly` property takes the place of the
`useJaf` property that was removed in 0aaa652
- In classes that existed before Spring 5.0, the
`useRegisteredExtensionsOnly` property is added in addition to the
deprecated `useJaf`, the latter delegating to the former, but with
flipped behavior.
Issue: SPR-14908
This commit changes the `MockServletContext.getMimeType` method to use
`MediaTypeFactory` instead of JAF. It also adds a `addMimeType(String,
MediaType)` method to customize the mime types returned from said
method.
Issue: SPR-14908
This commit updates the main code base to conform to the dropped JAF
dependency in MediaTypeFactory. Specifically, it
- Removes JAF detection (JAF_PRESENT constants)
- Deprecated useJaf properties, with no direct replacement.
- Updated docs to remove JAF references, in favor of MediaTypeFactory.
