Sam Brannen f8a2bdad87 Clarify Bean Overrides and Spring AOP Proxies documentation
A user reported confusion between two distinct uses of "wraps" in the
AOP proxy documentation for Bean Overrides: the sense in which a
Mockito spy wraps the original bean instance it was created from, and
the sense in which a Spring AOP proxy wraps the spy in the actual
object graph.

To address that, this commit adds two small diagrams to the general
"Bean Overrides and Spring AOP Proxies" section, illustrating, from a
caller's perspective, the shape of the bean for the
REPLACE/REPLACE_OR_CREATE strategy (no proxy at all) versus the WRAP
strategy (an AOP proxy still created, now wrapping the override
instance instead of the original bean). Both diagrams use the same
generic "override instance" label, since the section is not specific to
Mockito; a Mockito spy created by @⁠MockitoSpyBean is mentioned only as
an example.

The accompanying text is revised to reserve "wraps" for the AOP proxy
relationship and to explicitly call out that a Mockito spy's
relationship to its original bean instance is a separate concern from
AOP proxy nesting.

The @⁠MockitoSpyBean-specific strategy paragraph in the
@⁠MockitoBean/@⁠MockitoSpyBean documentation has also been revised
similarly, and now points to the new diagram.

Sam Brannen 8df51ad6cc Document AOP proxy semantics for Bean Overrides in tests
This commit documents how the Bean Override support in the TestContext
framework interacts with Spring AOP proxies created for annotations
such as @⁠Transactional, @⁠Cacheable, and @⁠Retryable.

The new "Bean Overrides and Spring AOP Proxies" section in the general
Bean Overriding documentation explains that overrides using the WRAP
strategy (such as @⁠MockitoSpyBean) end up as the target of any AOP
proxy subsequently created for the original bean; whereas, overrides
using the REPLACE or REPLACE_OR_CREATE strategy (such as @⁠TestBean,
@⁠MockitoBean) bypass the container's bean post-processing entirely and
therefore carry no AOP advice at all.

The new "@⁠MockitoSpyBean and Spring AOP Proxies" section documents the
resulting stubbing and verification semantics. Verification via
Mockito's verify() API works transparently regardless of whether it is
invoked on the proxy or on the spy. Stubbing via doReturn(...)/doThrow(...)
is safe for stateless advice such as @⁠Retryable, but can silently
corrupt the spy's configured answers for stateful or memoizing advice
such as @⁠Cacheable, since the invocation used to declare a stub is
intercepted by Mockito before it reaches the spy and returns an empty
value that such advice may then cache.
AopTestUtils.getUltimateTargetObject(...) is documented as the way to
stub directly against the spy in that case.

The same section also documents how to disable the AOP advice for a
test altogether while leaving it in place in production code – for
example, binding a @⁠Retryable attribute to a property placeholder
overridden via @⁠TestPropertySource, or replacing the CacheManager with
a NoOpCacheManager via @⁠TestBean.

Brief cross-referencing notes have also been added to the @⁠TestBean
documentation and to the existing AopTestUtils description in the
"General Testing Utilities" section, to avoid duplicating the
explanation across pages.

In addition, the Javadoc for @⁠MockitoSpyBean now contains a concise
WARNING summarizing these AOP proxy implications and linking to the new
reference documentation section for details.

Sam Brannen 0c966029e2 Document object design guidelines for SpEL expressions
Property accessors resolved via SpEL's ReflectivePropertyAccessor and
DataBindingPropertyAccessor may be JavaBean-style accessors or plain
accessor methods used to support data classes such as Java records and
Kotlin data classes. However, neither accessor can determine, via
reflection, whether such a method is a side-effect-free read or an
action that happens to return a value. For example, File.delete() is a
public method that returns a boolean and therefore looks like a
plain "property".

To better inform users, this commit updates the Javadoc for
ReflectivePropertyAccessor, DataBindingPropertyAccessor, and
SimpleEvaluationContext (as well as in the SpEL reference
documentation) to clarify that restricting a SimpleEvaluationContext to
read-only data binding governs only whether assignment to a property is
permitted and does not guarantee that reading a property is free of
side effects. The reference documentation's "Security Considerations"
section now also defines what makes a method "accessor-shaped", with
concrete examples of safe versus side-effecting methods that share that
shape (for example, File.delete(), Queue.poll(), and
AtomicInteger.incrementAndGet()).

Building on that clarification, this commit introduces a new "Object
Design" section to the SpEL reference documentation, analogous to the
"Model Design" guidance for web data binding. This new section
recommends that any object reachable from an untrusted SpEL expression
(not only the root object) be a purpose-built, immutable type with a
deliberately limited surface area, and that its accessor-shaped methods
be audited for unsafe side effects. The new section also notes that
reachability is transitive through both property navigation and
indexing (for example, rootObject.child.grandchild or
rootObject.items[0]).

In any case, it remains the responsibility of the code that exposes a
root object or other reachable object to an expression from an
untrusted source to ensure that none of its accessor-shaped methods
perform an unsafe action.

Sam Brannen a894818c9e Document lifecycle and reuse contract for SpEL expressions and contexts
This commit adds a "Lifecycle and Reuse" section to the SpEL reference
documentation, immediately following the security considerations
introduced for gh-36997, explaining that AST nodes within a parsed
Expression may cache resolved PropertyAccessor, IndexAccessor,
MethodExecutor, and ConstructorExecutor instances for performance.

We also now document that reusing a parsed Expression across
EvaluationContext instances of the same type and with equivalent
configuration is supported (even if atypical), including when accessors
or resolvers registered with a context change between evaluations, but
that reusing a parsed Expression across contexts with different
security implications (for example, first against a
StandardEvaluationContext and later against a SimpleEvaluationContext)
is not supported, since cached state from a more permissive evaluation
may be reused during a more restrictive one.

The Javadoc for Expression, SpelExpression, EvaluationContext,
StandardEvaluationContext, SimpleEvaluationContext, PropertyAccessor,
IndexAccessor, MethodExecutor, and ConstructorExecutor has also been
updated to make these contracts discoverable via the API as well.

Sam Brannen 9b42a40a2a Document security implications of evaluating untrusted SpEL expressions
This commit clarifies in the Javadoc for EvaluationContext,
StandardEvaluationContext, and SimpleEvaluationContext (as well as in
the SpEL reference documentation) that StandardEvaluationContext must
never be used to evaluate expressions from an untrusted source, and
that SimpleEvaluationContext's restricted language and feature subset
is only a best-effort measure. The updated documentation also defines a
"trusted" source as a developer or administrator of the application and
points out that it is the responsibility of the code that configures an
EvaluationContext to ensure that no object reachable via the context
exposes dangerous operations.

Sam Brannen 9c8535f5e4 Compile SpEL expressions that use Optional with null-safe & Elvis operators
In Spring Framework 7.0, we introduced support for using `Optional`
with the null-safe and Elvis operators in SpEL expressions; however,
such expressions were previously not compilable.

To address that, this commit introduces a new
insertOptionalUnwrapIfNecessary() method in CodeFlow which effectively
inserts byte code instructions for `myOptional.orElse(null)`, and the
Elvis, Indexer, MethodReference, and PropertyOrFieldReference
implementations have been modified to track the need to unwrap an
`Optional` in compiled mode and delegate to
insertOptionalUnwrapIfNecessary() accordingly.

Sam Brannen f9523a785b Support @⁠MockitoBean and @⁠MockitoSpyBean on test constructor parameters
Prior to this commit, @⁠MockitoBean and @⁠MockitoSpyBean could be
declared on fields or at the type level (on test classes and test
interfaces), but not on constructor parameters. Consequently, a test
class could not use constructor injection for bean overrides.

To address that, this commit introduces support for @⁠MockitoBean and
@⁠MockitoSpyBean on constructor parameters in JUnit Jupiter test
classes. Specifically, the Bean Override infrastructure has been
overhauled to support constructor parameters as declaration sites and
injection points alongside fields, and the SpringExtension now
recognizes composed @⁠BeanOverride annotations on constructor
parameters in supportsParameter() and resolves them properly in
resolveParameter(). Note, however, that this support has not been
introduced for @⁠TestBean.

For example, the following which uses field injection:

   @⁠SpringJUnitConfig(TestConfig.class)
   class BeanOverrideTests {

      @⁠MockitoBean
      CustomService customService;

      // tests...
   }

Can now be rewritten to use constructor injection:

   @⁠SpringJUnitConfig(TestConfig.class)
   class BeanOverrideTests {

      private final CustomService customService;

      BeanOverrideTests(@⁠MockitoBean CustomService customService) {
         this.customService = customService;
      }

      // tests...
   }

With Kotlin this can be achieved even more succinctly via a compact
constructor declaration:

   @⁠SpringJUnitConfig(TestConfig::class)
   class BeanOverrideTests(@⁠MockitoBean val customService: CustomService) {

      // tests...
   }

Of course, if one is a fan of so-called "test records", that can also
be achieved succinctly with a Java record:

   @⁠SpringJUnitConfig(TestConfig.class)
   record BeanOverrideTests(@⁠MockitoBean CustomService customService) {

      // tests...
   }

Brian Clozel ab8de8ec4b Support Map payloads in FormHttpMessageConverter
Prior to this commit, the `FormHttpMessageConverter` would only support
`MultiValueMap` payloads for reading and writing. While this can be
useful when web forms contain multiple values under the same key, this
prevent developers from using a common `Map` type and factory methods
like `Map.of(...)`.

This commit relaxes constraints in `FormHttpMessageConverter` and
ensures that `Map` types are supported for reading and writing URL
encoded forms.
Note that when reading forms to a `Map`, only the first value for each
key will be considered and other values will be dropped if they exist.

Brian Clozel abc3cfc7be Move multipart support to dedicated converter
Prior to this commit, gh-36255 introduced the new
`MultipartHttpMessageConverter`, focusing on multipart message
conversion in a separate converter. The `FormHttpMessageConverter` did
conflate URL encoded forms and multipart messages in the same converter.

With the introduction of the new converter and related types in the same
package (with `Part`, `FormFieldPart` and `FilePart`), we can now
revisit this arrangement.

This commit restricts the `FormHttpMessageConverter` to URL encoded
forms only and as a result, changes its implementation to only consider
`MultiValueMap<String, String>` types for reading and writing HTTP
messages. Because type erasure, this converter is now a
`SmartHttpMessageConverter` to get better type information with
`ResolvableType`.

As a result, the `AllEncompassingFormHttpMessageConverter` is formally
deprecated and replaced by the `MultipartHttpMessageConverter`, by
setting part converters explicitly in its constructor.
