SpringRunnerContextCacheTests suffers from JDK7-related non-determinism
in values returned from Class#getDeclaredMethods(), which in turn
affects JUnit and its execution of @test methods.

This commit addresses this issue by introducing an
OrderedMethodsSpringJUnit4ClassRunner that sorts the test methods
alphabetically, which is actually required for
SpringRunnerContextCacheTests to work properly.

This commit introduces RequestAndSessionScopedBeansWacTests which
verifies support for request and session scoped beans in the Spring
TestContext Framework (TCF).

This support was actually introduced as an intentional side effect of
the work performed for SPR-5243 through the addition of the new 
WebTestExecutionListener.

Reverted change for @Bean methods that declare FactoryBean as their return type: The effects of trying to create the FactoryBean to find out about its implementation type are too far-reaching. It's better to recommend declaring a specific return type in the method signature if you want the container to specifically react to your implementation type.

Issue: SPR-9857

Includes a change for factory methods that declare their return type as FactoryBean: When asked for a specific type match (e.g. LoadTimeWeaverAware), we do check early singleton instances as well (reusing the instances that we create for getObjectType checks). This is necessary in order to make @Bean method introspection as capable as XML bean definition introspection, even in case of the @Bean method using a generic FactoryBean declaration for its return type (instead of the FactoryBean impl class).

* SPR-9851:
  Prevent memory leaks with @Configuration beans

Refactor ConfigurationClassEnhancer to allow cglib caching of
generated classes.  Prior to this commit each enhanced @Configuration
class would consume permgen space when created.

The CallbackFilter and Callback Types are now defined as static final
members so that they can be shared by all enhancers.  Only the
callbackInstances remain specific to a @Configuration class and
these are not used by cglib as part of the cache key.

This change ensures that when the Accept and the Producible media types
are equally specific, we use the one from the Accept header, which may
for example carry a different charset.

Remove use of UriTemplate in MockMvcRequestBuilders.
Rely on UriComponentsBuilder instead.

Decode query params before setting them on MockHttpServletRequest.

Add more options to model result matching for the count of errors.

Ignore white spaces and comments when comparing XML.
