---------------------------------
Patch with minor update to utilize the caching in SOLR-13420 plus some unit
test verification and a CHANGES.txt entry. Will commit to branch_8x and master
tomorrow evening if no objections.

> The current routed alias code is relying on a core property named
> routedAliasName to detect when the Routed Alias wrapper URP should be applied
> to Distributed Update Request Processor.

> Core properties are not changeable after the core is created, and they are
> written to the file system for every core. To support a unit test for
> SOLR-13419 I need to create some legacy formatted collection names, and
> arrange them into a TRA, but this is impossible due to the fact that I can't
> change the core property from the test. There's a TODO dating back to the
> original TRA implementation in the routed alias code to switch to collection
> properties instead, so this ticket will address that TODO to support the test
> required for SOLR-13419.
> Back compatibility with legacy core based TRA's and CRA's will of course be
> maintained. I also expect that this will facilitate some more nimble handling
> or routed aliases with future auto-scaling capabilities such as possibly
> detaching and archiving collections to cheaper, slower machines rather than
> deleting them. (presently such a collection would still attempt to use the
> routed alias if it received an update even if it were no longer in the list
> of collections for the alias)
