SPR-11512 introduced support for annotation attribute aliases via
@AliasFor, requiring the explicit declaration of the 'attribute'
attribute. However, for aliases within an annotation, this explicit
declaration is unnecessary.
This commit improves the readability of alias pairs declared within an
annotation by introducing a 'value' attribute in @AliasFor that is an
alias for the existing 'attribute' attribute. This allows annotations
such as @ContextConfiguration from the spring-test module to declare
aliases as follows.
public @interface ContextConfiguration {
@AliasFor("locations")
String[] value() default {};
@AliasFor("value")
String[] locations() default {};
// ...
}

AbstractMessageConverter provides overloaded methods with a conversion hint, MappingJackson2MessageConverter takes that hint into account, and SimpMessagingTemplate transformes such a hint in the given headers map into an explicit argument invocation argument.

After SPR-12884 (4.2 RC1) introduced support for a selector header
expression on SUBSCRIBE frames, messages from the destination cache
are further filtered based on the selector expression. While adding a
test to find subscriptions at the same time as unsubscribing, a
potential NPE was exposed. This commit fixes the NPE.

This split avoids a package tangle (between core and core.annotation) and also allows for selective use of raw annotation exposure versus synthesized annotations, with the latter primarily applicable to web and message handler processing at this point.

This commit introduces support for asynchronous return values thanks
to the new AsyncHandlerMethodReturnValueHandler interface. Out of
the box support for ListenableFuture is also provided.

This change introduces SimpUserRegistry exposing an API to access
information about connected users, their sessions, and subscriptions
with STOMP/WebSocket messaging. Provides are methods to access users
as well as a method to find subscriptions given a Matcher strategy.
The DefaultSimpUserRegistry implementation is also a
SmartApplicationListener which listesn for ApplicationContext events
when users connect, disconnect, subscribe, and unsubscribe to
destinations.
The MultiServerUserRegistry implementation is a composite that
aggregates user information from the local SimpUserRegistry as well
as snapshots of user on remote application servers.
UserRegistryMessageHandler is used with MultiServerUserRegistry. It
broadcats user registry information through the broker and listens
for similar broadcasts from other servers. This must be enabled
explicitly when configuring the STOMP broker relay.
The existing UserSessionRegistry which was primiarly used internally
to resolve a user name to session id's has been deprecated and is no
longer used. If an application configures a custom UserSessionRegistr
still, it will be adapted accordingly to SimpUserRegistry but the
effect is rather limited (comparable to pre-existing functionality)
and will not work in multi-server scenarios.
