Previously, if the `contextPath` of the application wasn't the root, the
HAL browser could not initialize since the `entryPoint` was referring to
an invalid location.
This commit makes sure to take the `contextPath` into account.

By default, Tomcat forces the generation of a session id during startup
to ensure that a SecureRandom instance has been initialized. When there
is a lack of entropy (as is often the case on a newly booted VPS, for
example) this can block for a long time (several minutes in some cases)
causing users to incorrectly believe that their application has hung
during startup. This is particularly problematic for applications that
don't use HTTP sessions as they are paying the startup cost for no
benefit.
This commit address the problem by configuring a custom
SessionIdGenerator that does not initialize itself during startup.
Instead, the initialization is now deferred until a request for a
session id is made.

Previously, SimpleInMemoryRepository used a ConcurrentReferenceHashMap
to store its locks. The type of map will discard its entries when the
JVM comes under GC pressure. With the code in its previous form, this
could lead to a NullPointerException when the following occurred:
1. putIfAbsent returned null indicating that a new entry has been added
to the map
2. GC pressure caused the map to discard the new entry
3. get returned null as the entry has been discard
There are two problems with the existing code:
1. Its usage of a ConcurrentMap is incorrect. The correct usage is:
a. Call get to see if the map already contains a lock
b. If the lock is null, create a new one
c. Call putIfAbsent to add the new lock
d. If the return value is non-null, another thread has created the
lock and it should be used. If the return value is null, use the
new lock created in b.
2. Once the use of ConcurrentMap has been corrected, the fact that it is
a ConcurrentReferenceHashMap means that different threads could
access the same value using different locks. This would occur if one
thread has retrieved a lock from the map and is using it, while GC
causes the lock to be removed from the map. Another thread then
attempts to get the lock and, as GC pressure has remove it, a new
lock is created allowing concurrent access to the same value.
This commit updates the code to use the ConcurrentMap correctly and also
replaces the ConcurrentReferenceHashMap with a ConcurrentHashMap. This
means that the repository will now use slightly more memory but this is
outweighed by the benefits of thread-safe updates and no risk of an NPE.

DevTools deliberately throws an uncaught exception on the main thread
as a safe way of causing it to stop processing. This exception is
caught and swallowed by an uncaught exception handler. Unfortunately,
this has the unwanted side-effect of causing the JVM to exit with 1
once all running threads are daemons.
Normally, this isn't a problem. Non-daemon threads, such as those
started by an embedded servlet container, will keep the JVM alive and
restarts of the application context will occur when the user makes to
their application. However, if the user adds DevTools to an
application that doesn't start any non-daemon threads, i.e. it starts,
runs, and then exits, it will exit with 1. This causes both
bootRun in Gradle and spring-boot:run in Maven to report that the
build has failed. While there's no benefit to using DevTools with an
application that behaves in this way, the side-effect of causing the
JVM to exit with 1 is unwanted.
This commit address the problem by updating the uncaught exception
handler to call System.exit(0) if the JVM is going to exit as a
result of the uncaught exception causing the main thread to die. In
other words, if the main thread was the only non-daemon thread, its
death as a result of the uncaught exception will now cause the JVM
to exit with 1 rather than 0. If there are other non-daemon threads
that will keep the JVM alive, the behaviour is unchanged.

Previously, when `spring.mvc.locale` was specified, that locale was used
regardless of the client's preferences. This commit adds an extra
`spring.mvc.locale-resolver` property that can control how the locale is
resolved. The default is `ACCEPT_HEADER` but can be set to `FIXED` to
restore the previous behaviour.

This commit removes HSQLDB dependency from Batch Starter as most apps
that use Spring Batch will prefer to use a RDBMS of their choice to store
batch metadata.
Additionally, explicit spring-jdbc dependency has been replaced with JDBC
Starter dependency.

Jetty 9.3 no longer has a jetty-jsap artifact and dependency
management for it was removed in ff602e6. It was inadvertently
reintroducved in b303b3f. This commit removes it again.

The JVM only allows URL.setURLStreamHandlerFactory to be called once.
This is problematic as the JSP support in embedded Tomcat and embedded
Jetty both call this method.
This commit uses reflection to null out URL’s factory field before and
after the embedded Jetty tests have run. This ensures that they can
run successfully if Tomcat has already installed its factory and that
Tomcat-related tests can also run afterwards.

Previously, Spring Data Redis assumed that the class loader that loaded
its classes would also be able to load the application’s classes. This
assumption is faulty when there are multiple class loaders involved
such as when using dev tools or when Spring Data Redis is installed as
a shared library in a servlet container.
DATAREDIS-427 and DATAREDIS-501 removed this assumption by making the
default serialiser use the bean class loader. DevTools configures this
class loader to be the restart class loader which can load the
application’s classes. As a result of moving to Hopper SR2 snapshots,
these fixes are now available and we can remove our custom serialised.
