Previously, the documentation did not provide any guidance on using
Jersey alongside Spring MVC or any other web framework.
This improves the documentation in two ways:
1. It notes that, in the presence of both Jersey and Spring MVC, the
Actuator will prefer Spring MVC for exposing HTTP endpoints.
2. It adds a how-to describing how to configure Jersey to forward
requests for which it has no handler on to the rest of the filter
chain. When Spring MVC is the other framework, this allows them to
be handled by its dispatcher servlet.

This commit is a continuation of the work done in 987a5f81. In
addition to developers and licenses that are covered in the earlier
commit, a number of other settings are still inherited from the
starter parent. This commit updates the documentation to show them
being overridden as well.
Closes gh-18532
Publishing to Maven Central requires spring-boot-starter-parent to
declare its license and developers. When a user then uses
spring-boot-starter-parent as their project's parent, these values
are inherited and this is almost certainly unwanted.
This commit updates the documentation to recommend and demonstrate
overriding the license and developers that are inherited from the
starter parent.
Closes gh-18532
Previously, the security risks and our recommendations on how to
mitigate them were not documented as clearly as they could have been.
This commit makes some changes to try to address this:
1. The security risk is now noted at the beginning of the section
2. The recommendation to use SSL is now documented more prominently
and an alternative recommendation to only use remote support on
a trusted network has been added.
3. The example secret has been removed to prevent copy and paste
4. A recommendation to use a secret that is unique and strong has been
added
Closes gh-18825
Prior to this commit, all supported servers would share the same
configuration property `server.connection-timeout`. Unfortunately, in
many cases the behavior of this timeout changes depending on the server.
From actual connection setup timeout, to detecting and closing idle
connections, this property cannot be properly translated from one server
implementation to another.
This commit deprecates this configuration property and introduces server
specific properties:
* `server.jetty.connection-idle-timeout`
(Time that the connection can be idle before it is closed.)
* `server.netty.connection-timeout`
(Connection timeout of the Netty channel.)
* `server.tomcat.connection-timeout`
(Amount of time the connector will wait, after accepting a connection,
for the request URI line to be presented.)
* `server.undertow.no-request-timeout`
(Amount of time a connection can sit idle without processing a request,
before it is closed by the server.)
`server.connection-timeout` is now deprecated and will be removed in a
future release.
Fixes gh-18473
This commit adds a note to spring-boot-features.adoc to clarify that
using javadoc tags to format configuration property descriptions is not
supported.
See gh-18578
Update the MockMvc documentation to provide more details about the
pros and cons of such an approach, specifically calling out the
difference with error page handling.
