Rossen Stoyanchev 8c76581442 Provide rich type information to ConversionService
When using the ConversionService to check and bridge to and from
reactive types we now generallly provide the full type information
available from method signatures. However that full type information
is not always necessary such as when we perform additional checks on
the generics of the reactive type (e.g. Mono<ResponseEntity>).

This allows us to switch to use DefaultFormattingConversionService
instead of GenericConversionService while also ensuring that the
CollectionToObjectConverter doesn't think it can convert List<?> to
any reactive type.

The ObjectToObjectConverter can also interfere because it is smart
enough to find the "from(Publisher<?>)" method on Flux and Mono.
To make up for that on the response side we now check if a type
is assignable to Publisher first in which case it is a simple cast.

In turn that means we don't need a PublisherToFluxConverter which can
be problematic in its own right because it can convert from Mono to
Flux which technically doesn't lose data but switches stream semantics.
