Issue: SPR-12197

Prior to this commit, the ResolvableType static cache was holding a lot
of duplicates for simple types. We are using too much metadata to compute
the key when the class has no generic information. so setFoo(String foo)
and setBar(String bar) would result in two entries in the cache because
the TypeProvider is different. On a very simple application 65% of the
entries in the cache were duplicate.

When the type is a Class with no generic information, the ResolvableType
instance is a simple wrapper around it so we might just as well not cache
it at all as the cost of finding it back from the cache is higher than
creating that simple wrapper.

This commit adds an explicit check; if the type is a simple Class we just
return a "resolved" ResolvableType instance for it. On a few test cases,
this reduces the size of the cache by 85%

 - clean up warnings
 - simplify ApplicationContext configuration

The ViewResolverComposite that contains the ViewResolver's registered
throug the MVC Java config and namespace can now be assigned an
explicit order.

The MVC Java config and namespace now have a consistent default order
or lowest precedence.

Prior to this commit, `AntPathMatcher.extractPathWithinPattern` would
not process correctly `**` patterns and would only match *one* path
segment in the given path.

This commit changes `extractPathWithinPattern` to allow multiple path
segments to be matched against a single `**` pattern segment.

Jackson2ObjectMapperBuilder now allows to create ObjectMapper and XmlMapper
instances easily thanks to its fluent API.

This builder is used in Jackson message converters and views to instantiate default
ObjectMapper and XmlMapper.

This commit also add a createXmlMapper property to
Jackson2ObjectMapperFactoryBean in order to allow to create easily a XmlMapper
instance.

interceptors.

Check for bean names of type rather than actual beans.

When not ViewResolver's have been registered, detect if the context
contains any other ViewResolver beans. If not, add InternalResourceVR
to match default DispatcherServlet behavior.

Commit 6a048312 introduced a regression that lead to burst recovery
attempts when the broker is up but the listener is failing for some
reason (the most obvious one being that the destination does not
exist).

Since the sleep period between recovery attempts strategy is more
complex, we can't just sleep for a period of time. But we can create
an execution and apply it once which should work just fine for most
use cases.

This commit updates the default location of the SockJS' client library.
The previous location is being retired by the project maintainers.

The new default location is backed by several CDN providers:

The new contract allows registration of interceptors with any
MessageChannel implementation hierarchy -- for example the one in the
Spring Framework or the one in Spring Integration.

When a DISCONNECT is sent to the broker, we proactively close the TCP
connection unless the DISCONNECT has a receipt header. Depending on
the timing, the broker may also close the connection on its side.
That appears to cause an exception in reactor on the CI server, e.g.:

https://build.spring.io/browse/SPR-PUB-JOB1-1715/test/case/135247530

This change traps the exceptions and prevents it from propagating.
