Prior to this commit, binding a `@ModelAttribute` object as a Controller handler paramater would instantiate the object and set all its properties, fetching data from the request. When no data is available, the WebDataBinder tries to bind default "empty" values: * Boolean.FALSE for boolean types * empty arrays for array types * null by default This commit adds the new default empty values: * empty Collections for Collection types * empty Maps for Map types Rather than using empty implementations provided by `Collections.empty` (which are not mutable), we're using the closest possible target type and real implementations, provided by the `CollectionFactory`.
