When Spring Data REST is owning the home page it has its own
HandlerMapping with a fix (relatively) low priority. The /links
endpoint wants to own the home page as well, and our handler mapping
has a high priority for good reasons. This change addresses the
issue by checking if Spring Data REST is configured and if
the management context path (or more specifically, the links
endpoint) is the same as the home page.
Fixes gh-3486
If spring-hateoas is on the classpath and an MvcEndpoint returns a
@ResponseBody it will be extended and wrapped into a Resource with links.
All the existing endpoints that return sensible JSON data can be extended
this way (i.e. not /logfile). The HAL browser will also be added as an
endpoint if available on the classpath. Finally, asciidocs for the
Actuator endpoints are available as a separate jar file, which if
included in an app will also generate a new (HTTP) endpoint.
Fixes gh-1390
