Overview
AnnotationConfigUtils currently looks up @Lazy as a meta-annotation at arbitrary depths (e.g., when used as a meta-meta-annotation) in processCommonDefinitionAnnotations(); whereas, ContextAnnotationAutowireCandidateResolver only finds @Lazy as a "directly present" meta-annotation in isLazy().
For consistency, we should find @Lazy as a meta-annotation at arbitrary depths in ContextAnnotationAutowireCandidateResolver as well.
