Prior to this commit, if a non-annotated [1] class was registered
directly with an ApplicationContext -- for example, via
AnnotatedBeanDefinitionReader, AnnotationConfigApplicationContext, or
@ContextConfiguration -- it was not considered a configuration class in
'lite' mode unless @Bean methods were declared locally. In other words,
if the registered class didn't declare local @Bean methods but rather
extended a class that declared @Bean methods, then the registered class
was not parsed as a @Configuration class in 'lite' mode, and the @Bean
methods were ignored.
Whereas, a non-annotated class registered via @Import is always
considered to be a configuration class candidate.
To address this discrepancy between @Import'ed classes and classes
registered directly with an ApplicationContext, this commit treats any
class registered via AnnotatedBeanDefinitionReader as a @Configuration
class candidate with @Bean 'lite' mode semantics.
[1] In this context, "non-annotated" means a class not annotated (or
meta-annotated) with @Component, @ComponentScan, @Import, or
@ImportResource.
