After this change sameSite still gets a default value of "Strict" in

Polish a few issue identified when adding checkstyle to the
build. Although checkstyle is not enforcing rules on tests,
these are a few minor changes that are still worth making.
Issue: SPR-16968
Reorganize imports to ensure consistent ordering. This commit also
expands any `.*` static imports in favor of using fully-qualified
method references.
Issue: SPR-16968
Update all classes so that inner classes are always last. Also
ensure that utility classes are always final and have a private
constructor and make exceptions final whenever possible.

In SPR-16892, the `EncoderHttpMessageWriter` has been improved to write
`"Content-Length"` HTTP response headers if the response body is of type
`Mono` (i.e. the actual content length is easily accessible without
buffering a possibly large response body). That change was relying on
the fact that the server side is using a `ChannelSendOperator` to delay
the writing of the body until the first signal is received.
This strategy is not effective on the client side, since no such channel
operator is used for `WebClient`. This commit improves
`EncoderHttpMessageWriter` and delays, for `Mono` HTTP message bodies
only, the writing of the body so that we can write the
`"Content-Length"` header information once we've got the body resolved.

This commit adds support for the "SameSite" attribute in response
cookies. As explained in rfc6265bis, this attribute can be used to limit
the scope of a cookie so that it can't be attached to a request unless
it is sent from the "same-site".
This feature is currently supported by Google Chrome and Firefox, other
browsers will ignore this attribute.
This feature can help prevent CSRF attacks; this is why this commit adds
this attribute by default for SESSION Cookies in WebFlux.
