Replace outdated `null` acceptance for `Pageable` with `Pageable.unpaged()`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.

Original pull request: #2566.
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.

Original pull request: #2566.
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.
Closes#2573
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.
Let List… interface variants extend their base parent so that List-based variants participate in the type hierarchy.
See #2538
Original pull request: #2538.
This introduces the interfaces
* `ListCrudRepository`
* `ListQuerydslPredicateExecutor`
* `ListQueryByExampleExecutor`
They return `List` instead of `Iterable` when returning multiple entities.
They can be used in the same way the interfaces without the `List` prefix can be used.
Closes#2535.
Original pull request: #2538.
This way they can be combined with different variants of CrudRepositories.
This affects
`PagingAndSortingRepository`, `ReactiveSortingRepository`, `CoroutineSortingRepository`, and `RxJavaSortingRepository`.
Any repository implementing those interfaces now needs to also implement a suitable CRUD repository, or needs to manually add the methods from a CRUD repository as needed.
Closes#2537
Original pull request: #2540.
We now remove fully our own class-reading visitors as AnnotationMetadata exposes getDeclaredMethods.
MethodsMetadataReaderFactory and MethodsMetadataReader remain deprecated bridging return types to retain backward compatibility.
Closes#2520
Use var instead of explicit local types where applicable. Use pattern variable instead instanceof and cast. Prefer loops and nullable types over Stream and Optional. Convert classes to records where applicable.
See #2465
