Rather than requiring an output directory to be explcitly configured,
a default is now automatically configured based on the build tool
that's being used. When using Gradle, snippets will be generated in
build/generated-snippets. When using Maven, snippets will be
generated in target/generated-snippets.

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.

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.
