This commit adds a test runtime dependency on log4j 2 for every project
and migrates all log4j.properties files to log4j2-test.xml files.

Prior to Java 8 it never really made much sense to author integration
tests using interfaces. Consequently, the Spring TestContext Framework
has never supported finding test-related annotations on interfaces in
its search algorithms.
However, Java 8's support for interface default methods introduces new
testing use cases for which it makes sense to declare test
configuration (e.g., @ContextConfiguration, etc.) on an interface
containing default methods instead of on an abstract base class.
This commit ensures that all non-repeatable, class-level test
annotations in the Spring TestContext Framework can now be declared on
test interfaces. The only test annotations that cannot be declared on
interfaces are therefore @Sql and @SqlGroup.

It's handy to know in advance whether or not expression that is
passed to CronSequenceGenerator or CronTrigger constructor would
not results in IllegalArgumentException. The only way to do it
now is to try\catch an instance creation but it's kinda ugly.
This commit makes sure to reject an `@EventListener` annotated method
that also uses `@Async`. In such scenario, the method is invoked in a
separate thread and the infrastructure has no handle on the actual reply,
if any.
The documentation has been improved to refer to that scenario.

This commit reverts the recently added merged annotation support for
Spring's JMX annotations by once again using the simpler searches for
repeatable annotations in AnnotationUtils.

Prior to this commit, @Cacheable, @CacheEvict, @CachePut, and @Caching
could be used to create custom stereotype annotations with hardcoded
values for their attributes; however, it was not possible to create
composed annotations with attribute overrides.
This commit addresses this issue by refactoring
SpringCacheAnnotationParser to use the newly introduced
findAllMergedAnnotations() method in AnnotatedElementUtils. As a
result, @Cacheable, @CacheEvict, @CachePut, and @Caching can now be
used to create custom composed annotations with attribute overrides
configured via @AliasFor.
