The upgrade to Hibernate 5.2.0.Final has provide to be too
problematic to live with. It requires Java 8, is incompatible with
a number of other projects in the Hibernate ecosystem, and it's
unclear for how long it will be maintained. We'd previously used
Hibernate 5.1.0.Final but its maintenance is also unclear with
Hibernate 5.1.1.Final being more than 3 months overdue.
This commit drops back to Hibernate 5.0.9.Final. This has a few
advantages:
- It's Java 7 compatible
- It's had some time to mature and should be reasonably free of
regressions for those moving from 4.3.x
- It's used in both Wildfly and JBoss EAP so there's a fair chance
that it will continue to be maintained.

Previously, the name of a join table when using Hibernate 5 would
differ from those when using Hibernate 4 with the default
SpringNamingStrategy.
This commit introduces SpringImplicitNamingStrategy which customises the
name of join tables to match those produced by SpringNamingStrategy.
Closes gh-5880
The name of the table for a many-to-many relationship has changed in
Hibernate 5.1.
This commit updates the JPA sample’s import.sql accordingly. It also
updates the repository integration tests to verify that the data has
been imported successfully.
Closes gh-5880
