Description

We should allow for custom ServerAuthenticationEntryPoint to be configured via ServerHttpSecurity.ExceptionHandlingSpec.

ExceptionHandlingConfigurer provides:

defaultAuthenticationEntryPointFor(AuthenticationEntryPoint, RequestMatcher)

We should align ServerHttpSecurity.ExceptionHandlingSpec and provide:

defaultAuthenticationEntryPointFor(ServerAuthenticationEntryPoint, ServerWebExchangeMatcher)

Research direction

Start with ServerHttpSecurity.ExceptionHandlingSpec and compare its API with ExceptionHandlingConfigurer.defaultAuthenticationEntryPointFor(AuthenticationEntryPoint, RequestMatcher). The work is complete when the server-side method accepts ServerAuthenticationEntryPoint and ServerWebExchangeMatcher and supports configuring a custom entry point.
