This commit extracts AnnotatedElementAdapter from TypeDescriptor and
introduces it as a public, top-level type in the
org.springframework.core.annotation package, and
AnnotatedElementUtils.forAnnotations() now returns an instance of
AnnotatedElementAdapter instead of AnnotatedElementForAnnotations which
has been removed.
In addition, this commit adds missing Javadoc for
AnnotatedElementAdapter and refines some of the implementation.
Closes gh-34628
This commit replaces use of the deprecated Gradle `task` method with

This commit removes the BDDMockito Checkstyle rule, since it did not
actually enforce the use of BDDMockito.
This commit also updates static imports to use Mockito instead of
BDDMockito where appropriate (automated via the Eclipse IDE Organize
Imports clean-up task).
Closes gh-34616
Unfortunately, it is not possible to raise the byte code level beyond
Java 1.8 for classes generated using CGLIB due to the fact that CGLIB
generates STATICHOOK methods which set static final fields outside the
initializer method <clinit> (i.e., a static initialization block).
Attempting to raise the level to Java 17 (or even Java 9) results in
exceptions like the following.
Caused by: java.lang.IllegalAccessError: Update to static final field
org.example.MyBean$$SpringCGLIB$$0.CGLIB$THREAD_CALLBACKS attempted from
a different method (CGLIB$STATICHOOK1) than the initializer method <clinit>
at org.example.MyBean$$SpringCGLIB$$0.CGLIB$STATICHOOK1(<generated>)
at org.example.MyBean$$SpringCGLIB$$0.<clinit>(<generated>)
This commit therefore introduces inline comments pointing out why we
stay with Java 1.8 byte code level with CGLIB.

This commit completely removes all support for convention-based
annotation attribute overrides in Spring's annotation utilities and the
MergedAnnotations infrastructure.
Composed annotations must now use @AliasFor to declare explicit
overrides for attributes in meta-annotations.
See gh-28760
Closes gh-28761
This commit revisit the build configuration to enforce the following:
* A single Java toolchain is used consistently with a recent Java
version (here, Java 23) and language level
* the main source is compiled with the Java 17 "-release" target
* Multi-Release classes are compiled with their respective "-release"
target. For now, only "spring-core" ships Java 21 variants.
Closes gh-34507
