xmlunit 2.1.0 is the latest release for xmlunit.
Most of the xmlunit functionality used within spring-framework
was done through the xmlunit 1.x helper class
`org.custommonkey.xmlunit.XMLAssert`.
As of xmlunit 2.0.0 most of the XML comparison methods are done
through hamcrest matchers exposed by the xmlunit-matchers
library. In some cases during the migration, the matchers
had to be customized with custom `NodeMatcher` or
`DifferenceEvaluator` instances in order to keep the assertions
correct (they were performed with xmlunit 1.x previously).

This commit adds a test runtime dependency on log4j 2 for every project
and migrates all log4j.properties files to log4j2-test.xml files.

This commit also removes the corresponding deprecated Servlet MVC variant and updates DispatcherServlet.properties to point to RequestMappingHandlerMapping/Adapter by default.

Originally handleNoMatch looked for partial matches based on URL
pattern, HTTP method, consumes, produces, and params in that order
but without narrowing down the set of partial matches resulting in
potentially inaccruate response status codes
Commit 473de0 added an improvement to narrow the set with partial
matches for URL pattern and HTTP method matches.
This commit overhauls handleNoMatch so that the narrowing down of
matches happens at each stage resulting in more accurate error
reporting for request mappings with fine-grained conditions.

As of 4.3 ResourceHttpRequestHandler delegates to the configured
ContentNegotiationManager, or one created internally, to look up
the media type for are resource.
This commit ensures the internally created ContentNegotiationManager is
correctly injected with the ServletContext through which it can perform
lookups as before.
Also the ServletPathContentNegotiationStrategy now checks the
ServletContext first and then delegates to its parent the
PathContentNegotiationStrategy and not vice versa. This is
consistent with how handleNoMatch (also in the same class) works
and also matches how ResourceHttpRequestHandler worked before 4.3.

This commit sets the response content type to
"text/event-stream;charset=UTF-8". Even if the SSE spec says that the
encoding should always be UTF-8 and that specifying the charset is
optional, we're setting it in all cases, since some containers might use
the default encoding "ISO-8859-1" and confuse HTTP clients.

This commit updates AbstractHandlerExceptionResolver to only log at the
WARN level exceptions that are actually resolved by the
ExceptionResolver.
In case developers wish to log each time an ExceptionResolver is called,
a DEBUG level log is still available.
Issue: SPR-14392
When comparing multiple matching @RequestMapping's, the HTTP method
condition has the lowest precedence. It's mainly about ensuring an
explicit mapping wins over an implicit (i.e. no method) one.
As of 4.3 HTTP HEAD is handled automatically for controller methods
that match to GET. However an explicit mapping HTTP HEAD allows an
application to take control.
This commit ensures that for HTTP HEAD requests the HTTP method
condition is checked first which means that an explicit HEAD mapping
now trumps all other conditions.
Normally we look for the most specific matching @RequestMapping.
For HTTP HEAD we now look for the most specific match among
@RequestMapping methods with a HEAD mapping first.
