Before this commit, specifying the charset to use with produces or
consumes @RequestMapping attributes resulted in default charset
loss. That was really annoying for JSON for example, where using
UTF-8 charset is mandatory in a lot of use cases.
This commit adds a defaultCharset property to
AbstractHttpMessageConverter in order to avoid losing the
default charset when specifying the charset with these
@RequestMapping attributes.
It changes slightly the default behavior (that's why we have waited
4.3), but it is much more error prone, and will match with most
user's expectations since the charset loss was accidental in most
use cases (users usually just want to limit the media type supported
by a specific handler method).

The CORS pre-flight request matching logic for all request conditions
was added (in 4.2) to RequestMappingInfo. However the logic for
default handling of all HTTP OPTIONS requests for 4.3 unintentionally
overrode some of the pre-flight request handling thus causing issues.
This commit moves CORS pre-flight matching logic into each respective
RequestMethodCondition implementations so each has to consider in one
place what happens for pre-flight and for all other requests.
Issue: SPR-13130
Commit ccd17d introduced a regression where a custom HTTP method
would no longer match for an empty @RequestMapping condition.
The previous behavior should now be restored. Effectively
RequestMethodRequestCondition as before will now match to any HTTP
method (even unknown/custom ones) if the methods condition is empty.
The only exception is HTTP OPTIONS for which we provide default
handling as a fallback (i.e. when not mapped explicitly).
Issue: SPR-13130
Check that the path is valid and resolvable before checking that the
http method is supported. For invalid or unresolvable paths, always
respond with a 404.
Custom argument resolvers configured in the MVC Java config or the
MVC namespace are now injected in both the RequestMappingHandlerAdapter
as well as in the ExceptionHandlerExceptionResolver.

This is in line with the current behavior of HttpServlet that would
have been in used with dispatchOptionsRequest on the DispatcherSerlvet
set to false (the default prior to 4.3).
Issue: SPR-13130
The WebContentGenerator now maintains an additional property that
sub-classes can use for an "Allow" header in response to an HTTP
OPTIONS request. This property is pre-initialized once at startup
and does not have to rely on getSupportedMethods in addition to
adding HTTP OPTIONS if not explicitly listed.

This commit updates the javadoc of
`RequestMappingHanderAdapter.setCacheSecondsForSessionAttributeHandlers`
to explain how one can disable that feature and prevent "Cache-Control"
directives from being added when `@SessionAttributes` annotations are
used on Controllers.
Issue: SPR-13598
Prior to this change, configuring a `FixedVersionStrategy` like so
would configure a single "/js/**" path pattern:
```
versionResourceResolver.addFixedVersionStrategy("v1.0.0","/js/**");
```
This commit makes sure that for each path pattern, its prefixed version
is added to the map. For example, the previous configuration also
adds "/v1.0.0/js/**".
Issue: SPR-13883
Prior to this change, the `RequestMappingHandlerAdapter` would first add
a "Cache-Control" HTTP header to the response (depending on its
`WebContentGenerator` configuration and `@SessionAttributes` on the
handler class); then, the Adapter would delegate the actual handler the
processing of the request.
This leads to issues, as the handler does not have full control to the
response and has to deal with pre-existing headers in the response. This
means that the Adapter and the handler can add incompatible
Cache-Control directives without knowing it, since one cannot see the
headers added by the other until the response is committed.
This commit switches the order of execution: first, the handler is
called (possibly adding HTTP headers), then the RMHA processes the
response and adds "Cache-Control" directives *only if there's no
Cache-Control header already defined*.
Issue: SPR-13867
This change exposes protected methods for instantiating sub-classes of
RequestMappingHandlerAdapter and ExceptonHandlerExceptionResolver
similar to the existing method for RequestMappingHandlerMapping.
Prior to this change, the `ResourceUrlEncodingFilter` would try to
lookup resources URLs as soon as the given URL would be longer than the
expected context+servlet prefix path. This can lead to
OutOfBoundsExceptions when the provided URL does not start with that
prefix and still has the required length.
This commit makes sure that all candidate URLs for resources lookup are
prefixed with the cached servlet and context path. This underlines the
fact that the `ResourceUrlEncodingFilter` does not support relative URLs
for now and delegates to the native servlet implementation in that case.
