Replace outdated `null` acceptance for `Pageable` with `Pageable.unpaged()`
`QueryByExampleExecutor#findAll(Example<S> example, Pageable pageable)` should does not accept null values since there is `Pageable.unpaged()`. Furthermore, the same applies to `PagingAndSortingRepository#findAll(Pageable pageable)`.

Closes#2574
Increase visibility of converter builders.
Refine generics naming towards DV/SV instead of A/B to easier identify store-native values and domains-specific values in the API. Refactor PropertyValueConversions.hasValueConverter into a non-default method.
Tweak documentation.

Introduce a builder API to register PropertyValueConverters using simple (Bi)Functions. Additional methods on ValueConversionContext to enable advanced use cases in converter implementation. Tweak generics of VCC to be able to expose store-specific PersistentProperty implementations via the context.

We now accept Object-typed values to allow broader reuse of QuerydslPredicateBuilder. The conversion into the actual value considers the origin type and checks assignability before employing the ConversionService.

Move simple Spring Converter implementation that allow to create DTOs from a source object previously copied amongst a variety of store modules.
Issue #2476.
Move to @PersistenceCreator as canonical annotation to explicitly express constructors and methods to be used to create domain object instances from persistence operations. Removed @FactoryMethod as it's not needed anymore. @PersistenceConstructor is now deprecated.
Renamed EntityCreatorMetadata(Support|Discoverer) to InstanceCreatorMetadata(Support|Discoverer) to avoid further manifestation of the notion of an entity in the metamodel as it's not used to only handle entities.
Issue #2476.
Moved Vavr collection converters into a type in the utility package. Register the converters via CustomConversions.registerConvertersIn(…) to make sure that all the Spring Data object mapping converters automatically benefit from a ConversionService that is capable of translating between Java-native collections and Vavr ones.
Issue #2511.
