From #9a894a we began using the content-type from the ResponseEntity
but cross-checking it still against the requested content type.
Arguably there isn't any purpose in cross-checking. The only possible
outcomes are: a) it's compatible or b) it's not, which would result in
406 (NOT_ACCEPTABLE). As we've been given explicitly the media type to
use, it makes little sense to send 406, ignoring the wish to use that
content type.

Access-Control-Allow-Credentials CORS header, used to
allow cookies with CORS requests, is not set to true
anymore by default when enabling CORS with
@CrossOrigin or global CORS configuration in order to
provide a more secured default CORS configuration.
The related allowCredentials property now requires to
be set to true explicitly in order to support cookies
with CORS requests.

MockMvc now properly detects the presence of an AsyncContext and
re-uses the response instance used to start it.
This commit also includes a minor fix in
ResponseBodyEmitterReturnValueHandler to ensure it does not disable
ETag related content buffering for reactive return values that do not
result in streaming (e.g. single value or collections).

Prior to this commit, the Resource `HandlerMapping` configured by
`@EnableSpringMvc` would be set up with only one custom
`HandlerInterceptor` (the one exposing the `ResourceUrlProvider` for
resolving URLs of static resources).
This behavior is not consistent with the rest of the default
configuration which leverages the interceptors configured against the
interceptor registry (with possible user-provided ones).
This change allows to register interceptors against resource handling;
this can be useful for metrics purposes, as in
spring-projects/spring-boot#10335.

The Javadoc on tag classes now has all the information including a
list of all tags at the package level, HTML tables listing tag
attributes in each tag class, and class level description that is
as good or in many cases better than what was in the reference.

Includes unified detection of Kotlin's optional parameters in MethodParameter.isOptional(), reduces BeanUtils.findPrimaryConstructor to Kotlin semantics (for reuse in AutowiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor), and finally introduces a common KotlinDetector delegate with an isKotlinType(Class) check.
