We now reuse interfaces for EntityManager and Query classes that
are proxied through ExtendedEntityManagerCreator and SharedEntityManagerCreator.
These caches prevent excessive object allocations through
ClassUtils.getAllInterfacesForClass(…) and
ClassUtils.getAllInterfacesForClassAsSet(…).
Deprecate all mutation methods in `MethodParameter` in favor of factory
methods that return a new instance. Existing code that previously relied
on mutation has been updated to use the replacement methods.
Closes gh-23385
Update `AbstractAutowireCapableBeanFactory.getTypeForFactoryBean` to
use fallback to `determineTargetType` if the factory bean definition
does not have a resolved class.
This is required for the case where a `@Configuration` class is picked
up via component scanning and has a bean type that has not yet been
resolved.
Closes gh-23338
Prior to this commit, the new `TYPE_HIERARCHY_AND_ENCLOSING_CLASSES`
annotation search strategy failed to find annotations on enclosing
classes if the source class was a nested class that itself had no
annotations present.
This commit fixes this by adding special logic to AnnotationsScanner's
isWithoutHierarchy() method to properly support nested classes.
Closes gh-23378
Add a `TYPE_HIERARCHY_AND_ENCLOSING_CLASSES` annotation search strategy
that can be used to search the full type hierarchy as well as any
enclosing classes.

Update code that's often called so that zero length array results use
a single shared static constant, rather than a new instance for each
call.
Closes gh-23340
Update `getTypeForFactoryBean` detection so that a bean definition
attribute can be used to supply the result. This commit allows projects
such as Spring Data to provide the result that would be supplied by
`getObjectType` early so that we don't need to initialize the
`FactoryBean` unnecessarily.
Closes gh-23338
Update the `FactoryBean` type prediction logic (primarily in the
`DefaultListableBeanFactory`) so that generic type information is
considered when calling `getBeanNamesForType` on a non-frozen
configuration.
Calling `getBeanNamesForType` with `allowEagerInit` disabled will now
detect `FactoryBean` variants as long as generic type information is
available in either the class or the factory method return type.
Closes gh-23338
Update the logic in `AbstractBeanFactory` so that caches from merged
bean definitions remain whenever possible.
Prior to this commit, all merged bean definitions would be completely
removed after bean post processing in case a processor changed the bean
type. It's fairly unlikely these days that the bean type will actually
change, so instead we now compare a subset of the old cached properties
against the newly created definition. Only if key properties have
changed do we now discard the older cached values.
Closes gh-23336
Update `ListableBeanFactory` and `BeanFactoryUtils` to add the missing
`getBeanNamesForType` methods that accept a `ResolvableType` rather
than a `Class`.
This completes the work started in 778a01943b.
Closes gh-23335
