This commits extends nullability declarations to the field level, formalizing the interaction between methods and their underlying fields and therefore avoiding any nullability mismatch.
Issue: SPR-15720
Beyond just formally declaring the current behavior, this revision actually enforces non-null behavior in selected signatures now, not tolerating null values anymore when not explicitly documented. It also changes some utility methods with historic null-in/null-out tolerance towards enforced non-null return values, making them a proper citizen in non-null assignments.
Some issues are left as to-do: in particular a thorough revision of spring-test, and a few tests with unclear failures (ignored as "TODO: NULLABLE") to be sorted out in a follow-up commit.

This commit introduces 2 new @Nullable and @NonNullApi
annotations that leverage JSR 305 (dormant but available via
Findbugs jsr305 dependency and already used by libraries
like OkHttp) meta-annotations to specify explicitly
null-safety of Spring Framework parameters and return values.
In order to avoid adding too much annotations, the
default is set at package level with @NonNullApi and
@Nullable annotations are added when needed at parameter or
return value level. These annotations are intended to be used
on Spring Framework itself but also by other Spring projects.
@Nullable annotations have been introduced based on Javadoc
and search of patterns like "return null;". It is expected that
nullability of Spring Framework API will be polished with
complementary commits.
In practice, this will make the whole Spring Framework API
null-safe for Kotlin projects (when KT-10942 will be fixed)
since Kotlin will be able to leverage these annotations to
know if a parameter or a return value is nullable or not. But
this is also useful for Java developers as well since IntelliJ
IDEA, for example, also understands these annotations to
generate warnings when unsafe nullable usages are detected.

This commit introduces QosSettings that gather the Qualify of Service
settings one can use when sending a message. Such object can now be
associated to any JMS endpoint that allows to send a reply as part of
the processing of an incoming message.
Issue: SPR-15408
String with version 5 the name of Java Platform, Enterprise Edition
changed from J2EE to Java EE. However a lot of the documentation still
uses the term J2EE.
This commit includes the following changes:
* replace J2EE with Java EE where appropriate
This is not a blind search and replace. The following occurrences
remain unchanged:
* references to old J2EE releases, most notably 1.3 and 1.4.
* references to "Expert One-On-One J2EE Design and Development"
* references to "Core J2EE patterns"
* XML namespaces
* package names

This commit adds a test runtime dependency on log4j 2 for every project
and migrates all log4j.properties files to log4j2-test.xml files.
Issue: SPR-14431
This commit fixes MessagingMessageConverter to no longer expose the lazy
message resolution algorithm. This restores proper behaviour for
converters used outside of that context.
Instead, such arrangement is now private to
AbstractAdaptableMessageListener (as it should).
