Add ByteBufferConverter that is registered by default with the
DefaultConversionService. Allows conversion from/to a ByteBuffer and
byte[] or to any type that can be converted via a byte[].

Update the cached MethodExecutor in MethodReference to include the
target type. Prevents the incorrect use of the cache when the
SpEL expression refers to a different target object.
Issue: SPR-10657
Ensure any exception from calls to batchUpdate, on databases that
support batch operations, contains all the SQL statements. Prior to this
commit only the last SQL statement would be returned with the exception.
Issue: SPR-10677
Update MethodValidationPostProcessor.setValidator(...) to use
LocalValidatorFactoryBean.getValidator() when possible.
This is required because LocalValidatorFactoryBean does not directly
implement the forExecutables() method introduced in bean validation v1.1.
Issue: SPR-10644
Update the cached MethodExecutor in MethodReference to include the
method argument types. Prevents the incorrect use of the cache when the
SpEL expression refers to a class that has overloaded methods.
Issue: SPR-10657
Allow the @CachePut 'key' SpEL to refer to the result of the method call
via a '#result' variable.
This change is particularly useful when working with JPA entities that
have generated @Id values since the ID will often not be available
until the entity has been saved.

Introduce new SimpleKeyGenerator class to supersede DefaultKeyGenerator.
Unlike DefaultKeyGenerator, no collisions will occur with the keys
generated by SimpleKeyGenerator as the full parameter values are
considered within the SimpleKey.equals(...) method.
The SimpleKeyGenerator is now the default class used when no explicit
generator is configured.

Add EnhancedConfigurationBeanPostProcessor to inject the BeanFactory
into EnhancedConfiguration classes before the
AutowiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor.postProcessPropertyValues method
is called.
Prior to this commit it was possible for @Autowire in a @Configuration
class to invoke an enhanced configuration class method before the
BeanFactory was injected. This is due to the fact that the
AutowiredAnnotationBeanPostProcessor was called before
AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.invokeAwareMethods().

SPR-10402 in Spring Framework 3.2.3 treated empty request parameter
values as missing values, if the empty value was turned into a null
by a PropertyEditor or Converter. This caused the regression.

Prior to this commit, the longValue() in HeaderResultMatchers added the
expected response header name to generated assertion failure messages;
however, both string() methods did not. This made it more difficult to
analyze the cause of failed tests.
Furthermore, while investigating a solution for this issue it became
apparent that longValue() throws a NullPointerException if the response
does not contain the specified header.
This commit addresses these issues as follows:
- All methods in HeaderResultMatchers now include the response header
name in generated assertion failure messages.
- HeaderResultMatchers.longValue() now avoids NullPointerExceptions by
explicitly asserting that the response contains the specified header.
- The unit tests in HeaderAssertionTests have been expanded to test
most foreseeable use cases.

This commit refactors ContextLoaderUtilsTests into
AbstractContextLoaderUtilsTests and several specialized subclasses in
order to reduce to the growing complexity of ContextLoaderUtilsTests.
Prior to this commit, the active bean definition profiles to use when
loading an ApplicationContext for tests could only be configured
declaratively (i.e., via hard-coded values supplied to the 'value' or
'profiles' attribute of @ActiveProfiles).
This commit makes it possible to programmatically configure active bean
definition profiles in tests via a new ActiveProfileResolver interface.
Custom resolvers can be registered via a new 'resolver' attribute
introduced in @ActiveProfiles.
Overview of changes:
- Introduced a new ActiveProfilesResolver API.
- Added a 'resolver' attribute to @ActiveProfiles.
- Updated ContextLoaderUtils.resolveActiveProfiles() to support
ActiveProfilesResolvers.
- Documented these new features in the reference manual.
- Added new content to the reference manual regarding the
'inheritProfiles' attribute of @ActiveProfiles
- Removed the use of <lineannotation> Docbook markup in the testing
chapter of the reference manual for Java code examples in order to
allow comments to have proper syntax highlighting in the generated
HTML and PDF.

Prior to this commit the Spring Framework did not provide a public means
for scanning for available server ports. However, the Spring Framework
internally used a FreePortScanner in integration tests within its own
test suite. Furthermore, Spring Integration 2.2 provides similar support
in a SocketUtils class in the spring-integration-test module.
This commit introduces SocketUtils in spring-core to replace the
FreePortScanner which was previously only used internally within
Spring's test suite. This new implementation is inspired by both Spring
Framework's FreePortScanner and Spring Integration's SocketUtils and
consequently attempts to merge the best of both previous
implementations.
Issue: SPR-8032
Introduce new ConfigurationCondition interface allowing more
fine-grained control for @Conditional when used with @Configuration
beans.
Primarily added so that the evaluation of conditions that inspect bean
definitions can be deferred until all @Configuration classes have been
parsed.
