Throw meaningful exception if JUnit 4.9 is not present

SpringJUnit4ClassRunner, SpringClassRule, and SpringMethodRule now
throw an IllegalStateException with a meaningful message if JUnit 4.9
is not present in the classpath (specifically if
org.junit.runners.model.MultipleFailureException cannot be loaded).

Issue: SPR-13521
