SEC-2059: Support Path Variables in Intercept-Url Pattern

[spring-projects-issues]

Andy Chang (Migrated from SEC-2059) said:

When using the default Ant path matcher, it would be great if path variables can be used in intercept-url patterns and referenced in security expressions like so:

<http use-expressions="true" >
    <intercept-url pattern="/users/{name}" access="authentication.name=#name" />
    ...
</http>
