Prior to this commit, the `HttpEntityMethodProcessor` would avoid
writing ETag/Last-Modified response headers before calling
`ServletWebRequest` to process conditional requests. This was done to
avoid duplicate response header values due to headers being already
written to the underlying servlet response.
This is still necessary for GET/HEAD requests, since this is properly
handled by `ServletWebRequest` for those cases. But
`HttpEntityMethodProcessor` should not make that decision for
PUT/PATCH/POST responses since developers are adding response headers on
purpose and should be in control of the situation — whereas
`ServletWebRequest` does not write those headers in those cases.

Resetting the connection first before invoking a failure callback on
the application handler ensures that any checks to isConnected will
return false.

In order to simplify configuration for use cases involving @Bean where
only a bean name or aliases are supplied as an attribute, this commit
introduces a new 'value' attribute that is an @AliasFor 'name' in @Bean.

This commit overrides the `checkResource` implementation in
`ScriptTemplateView` in order to check if the template file resource is
available and if the resolver can then proceed with rendering the
template.

Improve RootBeanDefinition to specify an AnnotatedElement that holds
qualifier information. When such element is present, any qualifier that
it defines will be used to find a matching candidate.

Rather than setting the status to 503 directly from the timeout
interceptor which no longer seems to work reliably with Servlet
containers like Jetty even performing an additional ERROR dispatch back
to the original URL, we know rather set the DeferredResult to an
AsyncTimeoutException, which results in a dispatch and standard
handling within Spring MVC. This should be a more reliable way of
dealing with timeouts.

Since SPR-14522, the web reactive framework supports checkNotModified
features. This commit aligns the existing MVC infrastructure with
web reactive's behavior.
Code duplication has been removed from `HttpEntityMethodProcessor`
but the Servlet 2.5 baseline is still respected.

This commit documents the regexp support in `AntPathMatcher` when
matching for URL patterns. This support is also mentioned in places
where developers can register patterns for ViewControllers or resource
handlers.
