This commit replaces Reactive Streams converters for RxJava1 and CompletableFuture with Reactor specific ones. The results in conversion that preserves stream semantics, i.e. Mono vs Flux. For example this is allowed: Flux -> Observable Mono -> Single Mono -> CompletableFuture This is not allowed: Flux -> Single Mono -> Observable Flux -> CompletableFuture As a result it is now possible to check through the ConversionService if a target type to convert to is a stream of many or of one which is useful for decoding purposes. The commit also adds PublisherToFluxConverter to allow conversion from raw Publisher to Flux. The reverse is not necessary since Flux is a Publisher and it's a no-op conversion.
Spring Reactive is a sandbox for experimenting on the reactive support intended to be part of Spring Framework 5. For more information about this topic, you can have a look to Intro to Reactive programming and Reactive Web Applications talks.
