The main `build.gradle` file contains now only the common build
infrastructure; all module-specific build configurations have
been moved to their own build file.

Bean-derived null values may still get passed into bean properties and injection points but only if those are declared as non-required. Note that getBean will never return null; a manual bean.equals(null) / "null".equals(bean.toString()) check identifies expected null values now. This will only ever happen with custom FactoryBeans or factory methods returning null - and since all common cases are handled by autowiring or bean property values in bean definitions, there should be no need to ever manually check for such a null value received from getBean.

By using function literals with receiver, we can avoid requiring
lambda parameters for a shorter and nicer syntax. Based on a
proposal from Joseph Taylor.

This commit ensure that null-safety is consistent between
getters and setters in order to be able to provide beans
with properties with a common type when type safety is
taken in account like with Kotlin.
It also add a few missing property level @Nullable
annotations.

As a follow-up of the ApplicationContext Kotlin extensions, close to
the Kotlin functional WebFlux DSL and partially inspired of the
Groovy/Scala bean configuration DSL, this commit introduces a
lightweight Kotlin DSL for functional bean declaration.
It allows declaring beans as following:
beans {
bean<Foo>()
profile("bar") {
bean<Bar>("bar", scope = Scope.PROTOTYPE)
}
environment({ it.activeProfiles.contains("baz") }) {
bean { Baz(it.ref()) }
bean { Baz(it.ref("bar")) }
}
}
Advantages compared to Regular ApplicationContext API are:
- No exposure of low-level ApplicationContext API
- Focused DSL easier to read, but also easier to write with a fewer
entries in the auto-complete
- Declarative syntax instead of functions with verbs like registerBeans
while still allowing programmatic registration of beans if needed
- Such DSL is idiomatic in Kotlin
- No need to have an ApplicationContext instance to write how you
register your beans since beans { } DSL is conceptually a
Consumer<GenericApplicationContext>
This DSL effectively replaces ApplicationContext Kotlin extensions as
the recommended way to register beans in a functional way with Kotlin.

This commits extends nullability declarations to the field level, formalizing the interaction between methods and their underlying fields and therefore avoiding any nullability mismatch.

This commit introduces LocaleContextResolver interface, which is used
at ServerWebExchange level to resolve Locale, TimeZone and other i18n
related informations.
It follows Spring MVC locale resolution patterns with a few differences:
- Only LocaleContextResolver is supported since LocaleResolver is less
flexible
- Support is implemented in the org.springframework.web.server.i18n
package of spring-web module rather than in spring-webflux in order
to be able to leverage it at ServerWebExchange level
2 implementations are provided:
- FixedLocaleContextResolver
- AcceptHeaderLocaleContextResolver
It can be configured with both functional or annotation-based APIs.

This commit also removes nullability from two common spots: ResolvableType.getType() and TargetSource.getTarget(), both of which are never effectively null with any regular implementation. For such scenarios, a non-null empty type/target is the cleaner contract.
