SEC-2932: SecurityContextConfigurer should default SecurityContextRepository

[spring-projects-issues]

Rob Winch (Migrated from SEC-2932) said:

The following:

@Configuration
@EnableWebMvcSecurity
public class SecurityConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
    public SecurityConfig() {
        super(true);
    }

    @Override
    protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
        // @formatter:off
        http
                .addFilter(new WebAsyncManagerIntegrationFilter())
                .exceptionHandling().and()
                .headers().and()
                .securityContext().and()
                .requestCache().and()
                .servletApi().and()
                .authorizeRequests()
                      .anyRequest().authenticated()
                      .and()
                .httpBasic();
        // @formatter:on
    }

...
}

produces
