Spring Framework 4.2 introduced support for aliases between annotation
attributes that fall into the following two categories.
1) Alias pairs: two attributes in the same annotation that use
@AliasFor to declare that they are explicit aliases for each other.
2) Meta-annotation attribute overrides: an attribute in one annotation
uses @AliasFor to declare that it is an explicit override of an
attribute in a meta-annotation.
However, the existing functionality fails to support the case where two
attributes in the same annotation both use @AliasFor to declare that
they are both explicit overrides of the same attribute in the same
meta-annotation. In such scenarios, one would intuitively assume that
two such attributes would be treated as "implicit" aliases for each
other, analogous to the existing support for explicit alias pairs.
Furthermore, an annotation may potentially declare multiple aliases
that are effectively a set of implicit aliases for each other.
This commit introduces support for implicit aliases configured via
@AliasFor through an extensive overhaul of the support for alias
lookups, validation, etc. Specifically, this commit includes the
following.
- Introduced isAnnotationMetaPresent() in AnnotationUtils.
- Introduced private AliasDescriptor class in AnnotationUtils in order
to encapsulate the parsing, validation, and comparison of both
explicit and implicit aliases configured via @AliasFor.
- Switched from single values for alias names to lists of alias names.
- Renamed getAliasedAttributeName() to getAliasedAttributeNames() in
AnnotationUtils.
- Converted alias map to contain lists of aliases in AnnotationUtils.
- Refactored the following to support multiple implicit aliases:
getRequiredAttributeWithAlias() in AnnotationAttributes,
AbstractAliasAwareAnnotationAttributeExtractor,
MapAnnotationAttributeExtractor, MergedAnnotationAttributesProcessor
in AnnotatedElementUtils, and postProcessAnnotationAttributes() in
AnnotationUtils.
- Introduced numerous tests for implicit alias support, including
AbstractAliasAwareAnnotationAttributeExtractorTestCase,
DefaultAnnotationAttributeExtractorTests, and
MapAnnotationAttributeExtractorTests.
- Updated Javadoc in @AliasFor regarding implicit aliases and in
AnnotationUtils regarding "meta-present".

Prior to this commit, ServletWebRequest would call
HttpServletResponse.getStatus(), which is a Servlet 3.x method.
This commit checks if this method is available before calling it, thus
keeping Servlet 2.5 compatibility.

Related to that, HibernateTransactionManager specifically checks for active physical connections on reset as of Hibernate 5.

Xnio 3.4.0 will introduce a new source of ByteBuffers: ByteBufferPool.
Previously this feature was offered by Pooled/Pool/ByteBufferSlicePool;
those classes are now marked as deprecated.
As of 1.3.0.Beta9, Undertow still implements the following method in its
ClientConnection interface, using those deprecated types:
Pool<ByteBuffer> getBufferPool();
This commit prepares compatibility by suppressing warnings in order to
avoid build failures in our build. Once appropriate changes are made in
Undertow, a specific implementation with new types could be introduced.

Before this commit UriComponents was capable of expanding URI vars that
may have contained a regular expressions (as supported with
@RequestMapping for example). However if the regular expressions
contained any nested "{}" the expand did not work correctly.
This commit sanitizes a URI template source removing any content
between nested "{}" prior to expanding. This works since we only care
about the URI variable name.

Prior to this change, VersionResourceResolver and VersionStrategy would
resolve static resources using version strings. They assist
ResourceHttpRequestHandler with serving static resources. The
RequestHandler itself can be configured with HTTP caching strategies to
set Cache-Control headers.
In order to have a complete strategy with Cache-Control and ETag
response headers, developers can't reuse that version string information
and have to rely on other mechanisms (like ShallowEtagHeaderFilter).
This commit makes VersionResourceResolver use that version string to set
it as a request attribute, which will be used by the
ResourceHttpRequestHandler to write an ETag response header.

Prior to this change, ResourceUrlEncodingFilter and ResourceUrlProvider
would try to resolve the resource path using the full request URL (i.e.
request path and request parameters), whereas the request path is the
only information to consider.
This would lead to StringIndexOutOfBoundsExceptions when the path +
request params information was given to the AntPathMatcher.
This commit makes the appropriate change to both
ResourceUrlEncodingFilter and ResourceUrlProvider, in order to only
select the request path.

This commit introduces the following changes:
- Content type can now be properly configured
- Default content type is "text/html"
- Content type and charset are now properly set in the response

Prior to this change, trying to set an unquoted ETag with
`ResponseEntity`'s API would throw an `IllegalArgumentException`.
This commit automatically quotes ETag values set using ResponseEntity.

In an attempt to make our Jetty-based integration tests more robust,
this commit discontinues use of SocketUtils for picking a random,
available port and instead lets the Jetty Server pick its own port.
The StompSubProtcolHandler now checks the outcome of the send to the
inbound client channel. If the message was prevented from being sent,
e.g. as part of authorization, events are not published
Issue: SPR-13339
Before this commit RequestPartServletServerHttpRequest simply did an
instanceof check for MultipartHttpServletRequest. That hasn't failed
because request wrapping typically happens in filters before the
DispatcherServlet calls the MultipartResolver.
With Spring MVC Test and the Spring Security integraiton however,
this order is reversed since there we prepare the multipart request
upfront, i.e. there is no actual parsing.
The commit unwraps the request if necessary.
