This change adds a new HttpMessageConverter supporting
Google protocol buffers (aka Protobuf).
This message converter supports the following media types:
* application/json
* application/xml
* text/plain
* text/html (output only)
* and by default application/x-protobuf
Note, in order to generate Proto Message classes, the protoc binary
must be available on your system.

lambda expressions, using a syntax like
listenableFuture.addCallback(() -> ..., () -> ...);

This commit fixes cases where part of the URI was mistaken for the
userinfo when:
* the URI did not contain any path
* the query string contained the "@"

This commit introduces the RequestEntity, a class similar to
ResponseEntity, but meant for HTTP requests rather than responses. The
RequestEntity can be used both in RestTemplate as well as @MVC
scenarios.
The class also comes with a builder, similar to the one found in
ResponseEntity, which allows for building of a RequestEntity through a
fluent API.

GroovyBeanDefinitionReader and Groovy ApplicationContexts redirect ".xml" files to XmlBeanDefinitionReader now, similar to what they've been doing for importBeans directives already. Analogously, @ImportResource for configuration classes redirects ".groovy" to GroovyBeanDefinitionReader now.

Prior to this commit, calls to getAllow would fail is setAllow was set
to an EmptyCollection right before.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No enum constant
org.springframework.http.HttpMethod
This commit fixes this by testing the header value for an empty value
before trying to use it to get a value from the Enum.

After this change, java.util.Optional is supported with @RequestParam,
@RequestHeader, and @MatrixVariable arguments in Java 8. When Optional
is used the required flag is effectively ignored.

Before this change @ModelAttribute methods were not invoked in any
particular order other than ensuring global @ControllerAdvice methods
are called first and local @Controller methods second.
This change introduces a simple algorithm that selects the next
@ModelAttribute method to invoke by making a pass over all methods and
looking for one that has no dependencies (i.e. @ModelAttribute
input arguments) or has all dependencies resolved (i.e. available in
the model). The process is repeated until no more @ModelAttribute
methods remain.
If the next @ModelAttribute method cannot be determined because all
remaining methods have unresolved dependencies, the first available
method is picked anyway just as before, i.e. with required
dependencies created through the default constructor.
Examples in ModelFactoryOrderingTests.

This commit adds support to read and write JSON using the Google Gson
library. GsonHttpMessageConverter offers default Gson configuration, but
can be customized by using GsonFactoryBean. GsonFactoryBean includes
several convenience properties for configuring the internal GsonBuilder
and the resulting Gson object.
By default Gson converts byte arrays to JSON arrays instead of a Base64
encoded string. GsonBase64ByteArrayJsonTypeAdapter provides support to
read and write Base64 encoded byte arrays, and can be enabled in
GsonFactoryBean.
RestTemplate will enable GsonHttpMessageConverter only if Jackson 2 is
not found on the class path, because by default GsonHttpMessageConverter
supports the same media types as Jackson.

The newly added support for ResponseBodyInterceptor is a good fit for
the (also recently added) support for the Jackson @JsonView annotation.
This change refactors the original implementation of @JsonView support
for @ResponseBody and ResponseEntity controller methods this time
implemented as an ResponseBodyInterceptor.

This commit also includes lazy resolution support for StandardServletMultipartResolver, along the lines of existing lazy mode in CommonsMultipartResolver.
