Add new MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_UTF8 and
MediaType.APPLICATION_JSON_UTF8_VALUE constants for
"application/json;charset=UTF-8" content type in order to make it
easier to override @RequestMapping "produces" attribute without
losing the default JSON charset (UTF-8).

This change adds a new `getDateHeader` method that converts date header
Strings to long values - making tests more readable.
This feature is also documented in the "what's new section" for 4.2.
This commit improves the documentation in the reference manual for the
HtmlUnit & Selenium WebDriver integration in the Spring MVC Test
framework by mentioning the group and artifact IDs required for this
functionality.

Prior to this change, VersionResourceResolver and VersionStrategy would
resolve static resources using version strings. They assist
ResourceHttpRequestHandler with serving static resources. The
RequestHandler itself can be configured with HTTP caching strategies to
set Cache-Control headers.
In order to have a complete strategy with Cache-Control and ETag
response headers, developers can't reuse that version string information
and have to rely on other mechanisms (like ShallowEtagHeaderFilter).
This commit makes VersionResourceResolver use that version string to set
it as a request attribute, which will be used by the
ResourceHttpRequestHandler to write an ETag response header.
