Allow MergedBeanDefinitionPostProcessor to handle bean creation

This commit registers the MergedBeanDefinitionPostProcessor instances
on the BeanFactory processed for AOT purposes. This allows beans that
are created at build-time to be post-processed for low-level needs such
as initialization and autowiring.

Closes gh-28777
