Adds a new property, FieldName, to ModelBindingContext. The FieldName is
the name of whatever code-element is being bound, regardless of what
model-prefix is in use.
This is needed for cases like the Header model binder. We always want to
use the property/parameter name and we don't care about model prefixes.
- #2633
- do not leave `ModelBindingResult.ValidationNode` as `null` when we hit the `null` `RawValue` special case
- move two bits of code together to make the special case more obvious
- add `ModelValidationNode` (that suppresses validation) when `HttpRequestMessageModelBinder` is successful
- also suppress validation of `HttpRequestMEssage` properties
- suppress validation in `CancellationTokenModelBinder`, `FormCollectionModelBinder`, `FormCollectionModelBinder`
- do not create a `ModelValidationNode` when validation fails in `TypeConverterModelBinder`
nits:
- improve some doc comments
- add a quick `HttpRequestMessageModelBinderTest`
- #2793
- add `ICollectionModelBinder`, allowing `GenericModelBinder` to call `CreateEmptyCollection()`
- adjust `CollectionModelBinder` and `DictionaryModelBinder` to activate model if default types are incompatible
- do not create default (empty) top-level collection in fallback case if Model already non-`null`
- change type checks in `GenericModelBinder` to align with `CollectionModelBinder` capabilities
- add special case for `IEnumerable<T>`
- correct `ModelMetadata` of a few tests that previously did not need that information
- cleanup duplicate code now that #2445 is fixed
- update unit tests using old `ModelBindingContext` setups
- fix (just) one integration test where `MutableObjectModelBinder` incorrectly calculated
`isTopLevelObject` and returned a non-`null` model
- undo temporary changes in `BodyModelBinderTests` due to increased reliance on incorrect
`isTopLevelObject` in #2445 fix
nits:
- combine tests that are now duplicates
- beef up coverage of some `MutableObjectModelBinderTest` cases
- remove unused `using`s
This change treats 'top-level' collection-type models similarly to
top-level POCO model - namely that they will always be instantiated even
if there's no data to put inside.
