Ideally one would pass WebClient directly to HttpServiceProxyFactory,
but two need to remain decoupled. This commit adds static, shortcut
methods to WebClientAdapter to create an HttpServiceProxyFactory, thus
eliminating the step to wrap the WebClient.
Prior to this commit, Spring MVC and Spring WebFlux would not support
conditional requests with `If-Match` preconditions. As underlined in the
RFC9110 Section 13.1, those are related to the `If-None-Match`
conditions, but this time only performing requests if the resource
matches the given ETag.
This feature, and in general the `"*"` request Etag, are generally
useful to prevent "lost updates" when performing a POST/PUT request: we
want to ensure that we're updating a version with a known version or
create a new resource only if it doesn't exist already.
This commit adds `If-Match` conditional requests support and ensures
that both `If-Match` and `If-None-Match` work well with `"*"` request
ETags.
We can't rely on `checkNotModified(null)`, as the compiler can't decide
between method variants accepting an ETag `String` or a Last Modified
`long`. Instead, developers should use empty ETags `""` to signal that
no resource is known on the server side.

A static nested class does not keep an implicit reference to its
enclosing instance.
This prevents a common cause of memory leaks and uses less memory per
instance of the class.
Closes gh-28433
Prior to this commit, the `name` attribute in @ModelAttribute was not
supported when using WebFlux. This is because MethodParameter was used
instead of SynthesizingMethodParameter when retrieving the
@ModelAttribute annotation. In other words, @AliasFor was not honored
because the annotation was not synthesized. Consequently, only the
`value` attribute was supported in WebFlux when specifying a custom name
via @ModelAttribute.
This commit fixes this by using SynthesizingMethodParameter to retrieve
the @ModelAttribute annotation.
Closes gh-28423
