Spring Security now filters every dispatch by default and not only
once-per-request. Security configuration has been updated in a number of
places to restore the old behavior as needed for the tests to pass.
gh-31703 has been opened to review this and to investigate if we can
now remove the error page security filter and rely on the filtering of
every dispatch instead.
In addition to switching to once-per-request filtering where needed,
this commit also restructures the configuration of the error page
security filter. The restructuring was necessary to ensure that the
privilege evaluator bean has been defined before the conditions on the
error page security filter are evaluated. Without the change, the filter
was no longer being configured as the privilege evaluator hadn't been
defined before the on bean condition was evaluated. We may want to back
port this change as the ordering doesn't appear to have been defined
before and we were just getting lucky.

Previously, the error page security filter passed the request's URI
to the privilege evaluator. This was incorrect in applications with
a custom context path as the privilege evaluator must be passed a
path that does not include the context path and the request URI
includes the context path.
This commit updates the filter to use UrlPathHelper's
pathWithinApplication instead. The path within the application does
not include the context path. In addition, pathWithinAppliation
also correctly handles applications configured with a servlet
mapping other than the default of /.

Prior to this commit, the `ErrorPageSecurityFilter` verified if
access to the error page was allowed by invoking the
`WebInvocationPrivilegeEvaluator` with the Authentication from the
`SecurityContextHolder`.
This meant that access to the error page was denied for a `null` Authentication
or `AnonymousAuthenticationToken` in cases where the error page required
authenticated access. This prevented authorized users from accessing the
error page in case the Authentication wasn't retrievable for the error dispatch,
which is the case for `@Transient` authentication or stateless session policy.
This commit updates the `ErrorPageSecurityFilter` to check access to the error page
only if the error is an authn or authz error in cases where an authentication object
is not found in the SecurityContextHolder. This makes the error response consistent
when bad credentials or no credentials are used while also allowing access to previously
authorized users.

Update `build.gradle` files to ensure that `junit-platform-launcher` is
a `testRuntimeOnly` dependency. This ensures that tests can be run from
Eclipse.

Replace `WebSecurityConfigurer` and `WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter`
configurations with `WebSecurityCustomizer` or `SecurityFilterChain`
beans.

Update all dependencies declarations to use the form `scope(reference)`
rather than `scope reference`.
Prior to this commit we declared dependencies without parentheses unless
we were forced to add them due to an `exclude`.
Replace Gradle single quote strings with the double quote form
whenever possible. The change helps to being consistency to the
dependencies section where mostly single quotes were used, but
occasionally double quotes were required due to `${}` references.
