Spring Framework 5.2 introduced a regression in our annotation
processing support when the MergedAnnotations API was introduced.
Consequently, prior to this commit, our "annotation attributes as a Map
or AnnotationAttributes instance" support no longer stored exceptions
thrown while attempting to load a type referenced by an annotation
attribute. Instead, the exception was thrown immediately.
To address that, this commit revises our MergedAnnotation.asMap()
support so that it now tracks such exceptions in the map instead of
immediately throwing them. This allows map functionality such as
contains(attributeName), keySet(), etc. to continue to function
properly. In addition, the internal getRequiredAttribute() method in
AnnotationAttributes once again properly throws the original exception
wrapped in an IllegalArgumentException whenever a caller invokes one of
the convenience methods such as getClass() and getClassArray().
Note that this affects both asMap() variants as well as
asAnnotationAttributes().
In addition, this commit reverts the fix applied in 00fbd91cca since
it is no longer necessary.

Closes gh-36586
Prior to this commit, AnnotationBeanNameGenerator failed when searching
for a convention-based bean name, if an annotation referenced a
non-existent class.
To address that, this commit introduces a try-catch block around each
invocation of MergedAnnotation.asAnnotationAttributes() and skips
processing of the current MergedAnnotation if an exception occurs,
which is likely due to a type referenced from an annotation attribute
not being present in the classpath.

CacheAspectSupport currently contains a protected methodIdentification()
method which is not used internally within the framework, and it appears
that it was accidentally copied from TransactionAspectSupport when the
caching support was first introduced.
In light of that, this commit deprecates it for removal in 7.1.
Closes gh-36576
Although this commit also changes the visibility of some test methods
to package-private, the remainder of that task will be addressed in
conjunction with gh-36496.
Closes gh-36495
Since the Spring Framework uses American English spelling, this commit
updates Javadoc and the reference manual to ensure consistency in that
regard. However, there are two exceptions to this rule that arise due
to their use within a technical context.
- We use "cancelled/cancelling" instead of "canceled/canceling" in
numerous places (including error messages).
- We use "implementor" instead of "implementer".
Closes gh-36470
Traditionally, AbstractResourceBasedMessageSource has only had a
setDefaultEncoding() method which accepts the name of the default
encoding character set. However, although we have recently made a
concerted effort within the framework to introduce support for
supplying a Charset instead of a character set's name, we had
overlooked this particular scenario.
In light of that, this commit introduces setDefaultCharset(Charset) and
getDefaultCharset() methods in AbstractResourceBasedMessageSource and
makes direct use of the available Charset in
ReloadableResourceBundleMessageSource and ResourceBundleMessageSource.
Furthermore, although technically a regression in behavior, invoking
setDefaultEncoding() on such MessageSource implementations with an
invalid character set name now results in an immediate
UnsupportedCharsetException at configuration time instead of a
NoSuchMessageException at runtime, which will help users to more easily
detect misconfiguration.
Closes gh-36413
Prior to this commit, AnnotationConfigUtils looked up @Lazy as a
meta-annotation at arbitrary depths (e.g., when used as a
meta-meta-annotation); however,
ContextAnnotationAutowireCandidateResolver only found @Lazy as a
"directly present" meta-annotation.
For consistency, this commit revises
ContextAnnotationAutowireCandidateResolver so that it also finds @Lazy
as a meta-annotation at arbitrary depths.
Closes gh-36306
Prior to this commit, ValidationAnnotationUtils looked up @Validated
as a meta-annotation at arbitrary depths (e.g., when used as a
meta-meta-annotation) in determineValidationGroups() but only as a
"directly present" meta-annotation in determineValidationHints().
For consistency, this commit revises determineValidationHints() so that
it finds @Validated as a meta-annotation at arbitrary depths as well.
