In SPR-16892, the `EncoderHttpMessageWriter` has been improved to write
`"Content-Length"` HTTP response headers if the response body is of type
`Mono` (i.e. the actual content length is easily accessible without
buffering a possibly large response body). That change was relying on
the fact that the server side is using a `ChannelSendOperator` to delay
the writing of the body until the first signal is received.
This strategy is not effective on the client side, since no such channel
operator is used for `WebClient`. This commit improves
`EncoderHttpMessageWriter` and delays, for `Mono` HTTP message bodies
only, the writing of the body so that we can write the
`"Content-Length"` header information once we've got the body resolved.

Allow the `Environment` to accept a generic `Profiles` interface which
can support more complex matching rules. The previous
`acceptsProfiles(String...)` method now uses `Profiles.of` which
supports basic profile expressions such as "(a | b) & !c"

This commit adds support for the "SameSite" attribute in response
cookies. As explained in rfc6265bis, this attribute can be used to limit
the scope of a cookie so that it can't be attached to a request unless
it is sent from the "same-site".
This feature is currently supported by Google Chrome and Firefox, other
browsers will ignore this attribute.
This feature can help prevent CSRF attacks; this is why this commit adds
this attribute by default for SESSION Cookies in WebFlux.

Also, ZeroCopyHttpOutputMessage provides writeWith(Path, int, int), enforcing that variant as the implementation target in 5.1 (analogous to FilePart).
Issue: SPR-16925
@PathVariable's javadoc states that it supports MultiValueMap
parameters (introduced by commit df0902), but by reading through the
code, that does not seem to be the case (compare, e.g.,
PathVariableMapMethodArgumentResolver to
RequestParamMapMethodArgumentResolver).
Moreover, parsing MultipleValueMap is done according to the ";"
character, and placing such a character in a path (e.g., consider
something like "/app/{param}/show" would just break the path.
This patch fixes PathVariable's javadoc by removing the mention of
MultiValueMap.
This commit fixes the write checks for
`ResourceRegionHttpMessageConverter`, which was previously not checking
properly the parameterized type (e.g. in case of a `List<Something>`).
