This reduces the package cycle between aot and annotation to an Autowired annotation reference in ConstructorOrFactoryMethodResolver, to be resolved along with gh-27920.

This commit forces the resolution of all declared constructors when
registering `RuntimeHints` for Spring factories. Resolving constructors
can throw additional `NoClassDefFoundError` at runtime and during native
image compilation, if a type exposed by the constructor is missing from
the current classloader.
See gh-27955
Update `SpringFactoriesLoader` so that `null` is never used for the
cache key. Prior to this commit, calling `forDefaultResourceLocation`
with `null` and `ClassUtils.getDefaultClassLoader()` would provide
different `SpringFactoriesLoader` instances rather than making use
of a single shared cached instance.

The antlr-based SpEL expression grammar file (SpringExpressions.g) was
introduced during initial development and prototyping of the Spring
Expression language; however, it was quickly abandoned in favor of a
handcrafted implementation. Consequently, it has become obsolete over
time and has never been actively maintained.
This commit therefore removes the obsolete SpEL expression grammar file.

A static nested class does not keep an implicit reference to its
enclosing instance.
This prevents a common cause of memory leaks and uses less memory per
instance of the class.

Update `BeanDefinitionPropertiesCodeGenerator` so that hints are
generated for property values. This restores functionality that was
inadvertently removed during refactoring.
