Provide Gson/JSON-B MessageConverter for spring-messaging (aligned with spring-web)

See original GitHub issue

Marten Deinum opened SPR-16958 and commented

When using messaging there are MessageConverter implementations using Jackson to marshall message from/to JSON. However there doesn’t seem to be one for GSON whereas there is GSON support in the web area.

Now when using both messaging and web and when using GSON and want to use JSON for marshaling you need both providers on the class path. It would be nice if we could use GSON in the messaging area as well.

Affects: 5.0.7

I’ve repurposed this issue for the Gson / JSON-B (Apache Johnzon) alignment in spring-messaging, with the primary target being WebSocket support. My local implementations are designed with a common base class, similar to the arrangement in spring-web, and similarly included in our default WebSocket configuration based on classpath presence. To be committed ASAP.

My view of it was the same as mentioned above, namely consistency across borders of web vs messaging and the auto-configurations. The proposed road ahead for aligning spring-messaging and spring-web makes sense.
