Commit 3d86f15 added a lot of new feature in AbstractPropertyAccessor
shared by both DirectFieldAccessor and BeanWrapperImpl. This makes this
abstract class harder to implement for others having simpler use cases.
It turns that Spring Data has such use case; this commit split these new
features in a dedicated new base class, leaving AbstractPropertyAccessor
untouched.
Issue: SPR-12805
Previously, the binding may have to call the getter first to retrieve the
old value of a property before actually setting it. This was guarded by
a catch block that was accidentally removed in 3d86f15
Restore that catch block and add a test to cover it.

`BeanWrapperImpl` and `DirectFieldAccessor` are two
`ConfigurablePropertyAccessor` implementations with different features
set.
This commit harmonizes the two implementations to use a common base class
that delegates the actual property handling to the sub-classes:
* `BeanWrapperImpl`: `PropertyDescriptor` and introspection utilities
* `DirectFieldAccessor`: reflection on `java.lang.Field`
Issues: SPR-12206 - SPR-12805
Covers ReflectionUtils.doWithMethods as well as affected annotation post-processors.
Includes an extension of MethodMetadata for the detection of @Bean default methods.

Previously, only indexed access for collections were supported. When
attempting to access the element of an array that had not the requested
size, the call would fail with an IndexOutOfBoundException
This commit harmonize the binding support so that the array is updated
according to the requested index if necessary.
Issue: SPR-12706
Add a protected getFlattenedMap method to the YamlProcessor that
subclasses can use to flatten a source Map so that it has the same
entries as the Properties, but retains order.
Issue: SPR-12499
This commit adds an explicit support for String array for value
resolution. <util:properties> switches the 'locations' property to a
String array in 662d8aa and this broke expression evaluation.

Snake YAML allows for duplicate keys in map nodes. See
https://code.google.com/p/snakeyaml/issues/detail?id=199
This commit uses a dedicated Constructor extension that explicitly
checks for such duplicate keys.
Issue: SPR-12318
This commit fixes a potential NPE when determining the priority of a
bean instance in case multiple candidates exist and no bean was marked
as @Primary
Issue: SPR-12024
Commit 5fe8f52 introduced a support for @Priority as an alternative to
@Primary but it broke the semantic of the priority value. This commit
fixes this inconsistency.
As for @Order, the lowest value means the highest priority so if
several beans are candidates for injection, the one having the lowest
value will be used.
