Prior to this commit, the equals() implementation in AdvisedSupport's MethodCacheKey only considered methods to be equal based on an identity comparison (`==`), which led to duplicate entries in the method cache for the same logical method. This is caused by the fact that AdvisedSupport's getInterceptorsAndDynamicInterceptionAdvice() method is invoked at various stages with different Method instances for the same method: 1) when creating the proxy 2) when invoking the method via the proxy The reason the Method instances are different is due to the following. - Methods such as Class#getDeclaredMethods() and Class#getDeclaredMethod() always returns "child copies" of the underlying Method instances -- which means that `equals()` should be used instead of (or in addition to) `==` whenever the compared Method instances can come from different sources. With this commit, the equals() implementation in MethodCacheKey now considers methods equal based on identity or logical equality, giving preference to the quicker identity check.
