Prior to this commit, the generated POMs for Spring Framework modules
would contain unneeded/harmful information from the Spring Framework
build:
1. The BOM imports applied to each module by the dependency
management plugin, for example for Netty or Reactor Netty.
Spring should not export that opinion to its POMs.
2. The exclusion of "org.slf4:jcl-over-slf4j" from *all* dependencies,
which made the POMs much larger than necessary and suggested to
developers that they should exclude it as well when using all those
listed dependencies. In fact, only Apache Tiles currently brings that
transitively.
This commit removes that information from the POMs.
The dependencyManagement Gradle plugin is disabled for POM generation
and we manually resolve the dependency versions during the generation
phase.
The Gradle build is streamlined to exclude "org.slf4:jcl-over-slf4j"
only when necessary.

After the recent changes to expose configuring TcpOperations, it no
longer makes sense to automatically log the relayHost/Port since that's
mutually exclusive with a custom TcpOperations.
Instead we delegate to TcpOperations.toString().

HandlerMethodReturnValueHandlerComposite and
AbstractMethodMessageHandler iterate using index over collections
implementing RandomAccess to avoid unnecessary iterators.
Rather than create a new EvaluationContext instance per evaluation, we
now create a statically shared instance, without the root object in it,
and re-use it for all evalutations.
As of 4.3.13 MappingJackson2MessageConverter uses the MethodParameter
hint to obtain generic type information but it needs to be careful, and
nest one level, if the target parameter type has a Message wrapper.
