Autowiring implicitely Kotlin primary constructors
when there are secondary constructors has side effects
on ConstructorResolver. It seems reasonable to
require explicit @Autowired annotation in such case.
With this commit, implicit autowiring of Kotlin
primary constructors is only performed when there
is a primary constructor defined alone or with
a default constructor (define explicitly or
generated via the kotlin-noarg compiler plugin
or via optional constructor parameters with default
values).
Issue: SPR-16022
Includes unified detection of Kotlin's optional parameters in MethodParameter.isOptional(), reduces BeanUtils.findPrimaryConstructor to Kotlin semantics (for reuse in AutowiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor), and finally introduces a common KotlinDetector delegate with an isKotlinType(Class) check.

This commit introduces the following changes.
1) It adds a new Spring @NonNull annotation which allows to apply
@NonNullApi semantic on a specific element, like @Nullable does.
Combined with @Nullable, it allows partial null-safety support when
package granularity is too broad.
2) @Nullable and @NonNull can apply to ElementType.TYPE_USE in order
to be used on generic type arguments (SPR-15942).
3) Annotations does not apply to ElementType.TYPE_PARAMETER anymore
since it is not supported yet (applicability for such use case is
controversial and need to be discussed).
4) @NonNullApi does not apply to ElementType.FIELD anymore since in a
lot of use cases (private, protected) it is not part for the public API
+ its usage should remain opt-in. A dedicated @NonNullFields annotation
has been added in order to set fields default to non-nullable.
5) Updated Javadoc and reference documentation.
Issue: SPR-15756
This commit adds support for autowired constructor parameters
on Kotlin classes with optional parameters. If some constructor
parameters are not available, optional parameter default values
will be used instead. Both explicit @Autowired annotated constructor
and implicit single constructor automatically autowired are supported.

This commit merges back the "spring-beans-groovy" module into the main
"spring-beans" one. The build is configured so:
* Java and Groovy sources are jointly compiled
* Kotlin sources are compiled after
With this change, the `MergePlugin` is not used anymore in the project
build and therefore is removed.
The `DetectSplitPackagesPlugin` wasn't applied so it's been removed as
well.

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.
Issue: SPR-15829
This commit updates BeanUtils class in order to add Kotlin optional
parameters with default values support to the immutable data classes
support introduced by SPR-15199.
Issue: SPR-15673
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.

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