Jackson 2 uses completely new package names and new maven artifact ids.
This change adds Jackson 2 as an optional dependency and also provides
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter and MappingJackson2JsonView for use
with the new version.
The MVC namespace and the MVC Java config detect and use
MappingJackson2HttpMessageConverter if Jackson 2 is present.
Otherwise if Jackson 1.x is present,
then MappingJacksonHttpMessageConverter is used.

In support of SPR-7672 which will support code-based configuration
alternatives to web.xml using new features in the Servlet 3.0 API.
This upgrade does *not* force Spring users to upgrade to Servlet 3.0
capable containers. Compatibility with and support for
javax.servlet >= 2.4 remains.
