This commit introduces the spring-core-coroutines module
in order to avoid referencing Kotlin code from Java one,
which is currently not supported by Eclipse.
During the build, spring-core-coroutines is merged into
spring-core, so this change is expected to have no impact
for end users.
This module contains functions accessible from Java via
the CoroutinesUtils class to adapt Coroutines and Deferred
instances to and from Mono.
See gh-19975
This CGLIB upgrade literally does not make any difference to Spring users since its only purpose is a default ASM7 declaration in its AsmApi class (which we patched a month ago). We nevertheless leave our local AsmApi copy in place for the time being, allowing for an individual upgrade of the declared ASM API version in the future.

Prior to this commit, the generated POMs for Spring Framework modules
would contain unneeded/harmful information from the Spring Framework
build:
1. The BOM imports applied to each module by the dependency
management plugin, for example for Netty or Reactor Netty.
Spring should not export that opinion to its POMs.
2. The exclusion of "org.slf4:jcl-over-slf4j" from *all* dependencies,
which made the POMs much larger than necessary and suggested to
developers that they should exclude it as well when using all those
listed dependencies. In fact, only Apache Tiles currently brings that
transitively.
This commit removes that information from the POMs.
The dependencyManagement Gradle plugin is disabled for POM generation
and we manually resolve the dependency versions during the generation
phase.
The Gradle build is streamlined to exclude "org.slf4:jcl-over-slf4j"
only when necessary.

Spring's CGLIB fork is patched with local copies of affected files here, introducing the notion of a "contextClass" (e.g. the proxy superclass) which gets passed through to ReflectUtils.defineClass for delegating to MethodHandles.Lookup.defineClass eventually, against a privateLookupIn(contextClass) lookup context on JDK 9/10/11.

This commit applies the Dependency Management Plugin to modules that
require it; right now Spring Framework is importing BOMs for Netty and
Reactor dependencies only.
Instead of applying those BOMs to all modules, they're applied only
where they're needed.

The main `build.gradle` file contains now only the common build
infrastructure; all module-specific build configurations have
been moved to their own build file.
