This commit removes `GuavaCache` and support classes. Caffeine supersedes
the caching support in the Google Guava library with an actively maintained
Java 8+ version in standalone form.
As it is the only Guava feature Spring framework integrates with, this
commit removes effectively any reference to Guava.

This commit adds a test runtime dependency on log4j 2 for every project
and migrates all log4j.properties files to log4j2-test.xml files.

Prior to this commit the SpEL compiler would generate bad bytecode
if the left hand operand of an instanceof was a primitive or
if the right hand operand was a primitive type reference.
With the fixes primitives on the left hand side are now
correctly boxed and special handling is in place for when the
right hand side is a primitive type reference. Using a primitive
type reference on the right always causes the instanceof
check to return false.
Additionally a guard has been added such that compilation is
not allowed when the right hand side of an expression
is not a type reference. If it is, for example, a variable
reference that evaluates to a type reference then that
cannot be expressed in bytecode so compilation is not performed.

Prior to this change SpEL did not have an syntactic
construct enabling easy access to a FactoryBean. With this
change it is now possible to use &foo in an expression when
the factory bean should be returned.

Before this change the compilation of a method reference or property/field
access was not properly cleaning up the stack if compilation meant
calling a static method or accessing a static field. In these cases there
is no need for a target object on the stack and it should be removed if
present. For a simple expression it is harmless since the end result of
the expression is the thing on the top of the stack, but for nested
expressions if the inner expression suffered this issue, the outer
expression can find itself operating on the wrong element.
The particular issue covered the case of a static field access but this
fix (and associated tests) cover static method, property and field access.

When the plus operator is used between strings in a SpEL
expression and that expression is compiled, it is
important to include a cast if computation of any of
the operands isn't obviously leaving strings on the
stack. Likewise if the stack contents are known to
be strings, a cast should not be included.

Before this commit the object that #this would refer to in
nested expressions within projection/selection clauses was always
the root context object. This was incorrect as it should be the
element being projected/selected over. This commit introduces
a scope root context object which is set upon entering a new
scope (like when entering a projection or selection). Any
object. With this change this kind of expression now behaves:
where #this is the element of list1. Unqualified references
are also resolved against this scope root context object.

This change provides support for map[NEW], map[new], map[T]
and map[t]. Prior to this change the 'new' and 't' had to
be quoted because they were keywords in SpEL for a constructor
reference and type reference respectively.
