Configure view controllers with the ApplicationContext [SPR-13762]

[spring-projects-issues]

Rossen Stoyanchev opened SPR-13762 and commented

The ViewControllerRegistry should call setApplicationContext on the ParameterizableViewController (and the contained views like RedirectView) instances it creates. Not doing so can cause issues in Spring Boot where the ContextLoader is not used and we cannot fall back on ContextLoader.getCurrentWebApplicationContext().
