/**
* Register the given custom property editor for the given type and

If the property path denotes an array or Collection property,
* the editor will get applied either to the array/Collection itself
* (the {@link PropertyEditor} has to create an array or Collection value) or
* to each element (the {@code PropertyEditor} has to create the element type),
* depending on the specified required type.
*
Note: Only one single registered custom editor per property path
* is supported. In the case of a Collection/array, do not register an editor
* for both the Collection/array and each element on the same property.
*
For example, if you wanted to register an editor for "items[n].quantity"
* (for all values n), you would use "items.quantity" as the value of the
* 'propertyPath' argument to this method.
* @param requiredType the type of the property. This may be {@code null}
* if a property is given but should be specified in any case, in particular in
* case of a Collection - making clear whether the editor is supposed to apply
* to the entire Collection itself or to each of its entries. So as a general rule:
* Do not specify {@code null} here in case of a Collection/array!
* @param propertyPath the path of the property (name or nested path), or
* {@code null} if registering an editor for all properties of the given type
* @param propertyEditor editor to register
