Customize UserDomainType to CRUDRepository Mapping [DATAREST-472]

Brad lee opened DATAREST-472 and commented

Sorry ahead of time if this request exists in some other fashion, I could not find it.

The current code (org.springframework.data.repository.support.Repositories.java) searches for any CRUDRepository and uses a map to configure which one to use against the given UserDomainType (ie, the model class - JPA in my case). The code uses a "last one wins" approach, and as a result I could not find any way to customize it to use a specific CRUD Repository. Additionally, the Repositories.java class is written in such a way as to discourage extension, using private arg-based constructors with no access to local private variables.

I've attached a newer Repositories.java class which I based on the original to maintain the original functionality and also allow a user to configure regular expression based support to filter down to "preferred" CRUDRepository instances.

Thanks ahead of time for reviewing this.

Affects: 2.2.2 (Evans SR2)
