Add a companion module that IDE developers can use to read configuration
metadata from multiple sources into a single repository.
ConfigurationMetadataRepository provides access to groups and items as
well as an harmonized view on "sources" (that is the POJOs that have
contributed to a given group).

The exception message for a connection timeout has been updated to
include the timeout period. The tests for the sample have been updated
accordingly.

Traditionally, a @ServerEndpoint-annotated bean is found by a servlet
container initialiser, however Boot does not run servlet container
initialisers when an embedded container is being used. To be able to use
@ServerEndpoint in a Boot app that uses embedded Tomcat a
ServerEndpointExporter bean must be declared.
This commit updates the documentation to describe this requirement and
also updates the WebSockets sample to illustrate the use of
ServerEndpointExporter. The version of Spring Framework has been updated
to 4.0.8.BUILD-SNAPSHOT. This picks up the fix for SPR-12340.
Closes gh-1722
This commit updates Spring Boot to Liquibase 3.3.0 and makes the
necessary changes to Boot's PackageScanClassResolver.
Previously, when a class found by the scan could not be loaded a
warning message was logged. This commit lowers these to debug level,
bringing them into line with logging that the standard Liquibase
implementation does. It also avoids a warning always being logged at
startup due to Liquibase's WatchCommand$DynamicContentHandler which
depends on Jetty (an optional dependency of Liquibase).
Closes gh-1382
Upgrade to latest versions of Tomcat and Jetty and to the latest Servlet
API whilst will remaining compatible with Tomcat 7 and Jetty 8.

Adds an annotation processor to generates a JSON meta-data file at
compile time from @ConfigurationProperties items. Each meta-data file
can include an array or 'properties' and 'groups'.
A 'property' is a single item that may appear in a Spring Boot
'application.properties' file with a given value. For example,
'server.port' and 'server.context-path' are properties. Each property
may optionally include 'type' and 'description' attributes to provide
the data type (e.g. `java.lang.Integer`, `java.lang.String`) and
some short documentation (taken from the field javadoc) about what the
property is for. For consistency, the type of a primitive is translated
to its wrapper counterpart, i.e. `boolean` becomes `java.lang.Boolean`.
A 'group' provides a higher level grouping of properties. For example
the 'server.port' and 'server.context-path' properties are in the
'server' group.
Both 'property' and 'group' items may additional have 'sourceType' and
'sourceMethod' attributes to indicate the source that contributed them.
Users may use `META-INF/additional-spring-configuration-metadata.json`
to manually provide additionally meta-data that is not covered by
@ConfigurationProperties objects. The contents of this file will be
read and merged with harvested items. The complete meta-data file is
finally written to `META-INF/spring-configuration-metadata.json`.
