Clarify component scanning of abstract classes with @⁠Lookup methods

Due to changes in gh-19118, classes that contain @⁠Lookup methods are
no longer required to be concrete classes for use with component
scanning; however, the reference documentation still states that such
classes must not be abstract.

This commit therefore removes the outdated reference documentation and
updates the corresponding Javadoc.

See gh-19118
Closes gh-34367
