Support load-time weaving for @component classes again

Since Spring Framework 5.2, the LoadTimeWeaver no longer weaves bean
classes annotated with @component. This is a regression caused by the
changes in 40c6213, stemming from the fact that any class annotated
or meta-annotated with @component is considered to be a candidate
configuration class in 'configuration lite' mode (i.e., a class without
the @configuration annotation and without any @bean methods) and
therefore now has its class eagerly loaded. This results in the class
being loaded before the LoadTimeWeaver has a chance to weave it.

This commit fixes this regression by explicitly avoiding eager class
loading for any 'lite' @configuration or @component class without @bean
methods.

Closes gh-26199
