Given that Spring Boot uses java config accross the board, a new `value`
attribute is now aliased to the existing `classes` attribute such that
one could write the following:
@SpringApplicationConfiguration(MyConfig.class)
public class MyTest {}
Closes gh-3635
if user also adds @EnableWebMvcSecurity. The problem is that the ordering
of the init() and configure() methods in the Spring Security configurers
can force things to happen too early unless we are careful. It's still a bit
twitchy I would say, but this relatively small change seems to fix the GS guide
and not break any existing tests.
I added a sample which mimic ths GS guide so we get an integration test that
executes the new code paths.

Some assumptions were being made in tests, e.g. about
there being an AuthenticationManager @Bean, which were
false with the new Security 3.2.1 updates from Rob.
Also parent-child contexts with the actuator were
problematic because they didn't exclude the web configuration
for the management security in the parent context.
Fixes gh-244
Spring Boot provides a default AuthenticatiomManager for getting
started quickly with security and never exposing insecure
endpoints. To override that feature as users move to the next
stage in their project, they may have to do something slightly
different depending on whether it is a webapp or not.
In any app (web or not), providing a @Bean of type
AuthenticationManager always works, but you don't get the benefit of
the builder features.
In a webapp the user can also extend WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter
to provides a custom AuthenticationManager, and the preferred
way of doing that is via a void method that is autowired with an
AuthenticationManagerBuilder. The default AuthenticationManager is
built in a configurer with @Order(LOWEST_PRECEDENCE - 3) so
to override it the user's confugrer must have higher precedence
(lower @Order).
@EnableGlobalMethodSecurity can also be used in a non-webapp, and
Spring Boot will still provide a default AuthenticationManager.
To override it the user has to either extend
GlobalMethodSecurityConfiguration or provide a @Bean of type
AuthenticationManager (there's no other way to
capture the AuthenticationManagerBuilder that doesn't happen too late
in the beans lifecyle).
