In 1.0, the reliance on JUnit was more widespread than it should have
been. It should have been isolated to the JUnit TestRule implementation,
RestDocumentation. Unfortunately, RestDocumentation was also an argument
to MockMvcRestDocumentation.documentationConfiguration which made it
impossible to use Spring REST Docs without having JUnit on the
classpath.
This commit introduces JUnitRestDocumentation and
ManualRestDocumentation. The format is a direct replacement for
RestDocumentation which has been reworked to delegate to
JUnitRestDocumentation. The latter allows manual management of the
RestDocumentationContext, primarily for use with TestNG.
A new interface, RestDocumentationContextProvider, has been introduced.
It is implemented by RestDocumentation, JUnitRestDocumentation and
ManualRestDocumentation.
MockMvcRestDocumentation.documentationConfiguration has been overridden
to also accept a RestDocumentationContextProvider. The method that
accepts a RestDocumentation has been deprecated, as has
RestDocumentation itself.
The documentation has been updated to encourage the use of
JUnitRestDocumentation and a sample illustrating the use of Spring REST
Docs with TestNG has been added.

Previously, logic for creating an Operation, determining the snippets
to call, and calling them was duplicated in both the MockMvc and
REST Assured modules. This commit introduces a new core class,
RestDocumentationHandler, that now does the bulk of the work in a
reusable manner. The MockMvc and REST Assured modules have been
updated to delegate to RestDocumentationHandler.
Closes gh-194
This commit introduces support for generating snippets formatted
using Markdown. Asciidoctor remains the default.
A new SnippetFormat abstraction has been introduced with Asciidoctor
and Markdown implementations provided out of the box.
Markdown-formatted templates are also provided for all of the default
snippets.
Please refer to the updated reference documentation for further
details.

This commit adds a new module, spring-restdocs-restassured, that
can be used to generate documentation snippets when testing a service
with REST Assured.
Please refer to the updated reference documentation for details.
Thanks to Johan Haleby for making a change to REST Assured so that
path parameters could be documented.
Closes gh-102
