Disallow destroy-method when scope is prototype [SPR-6660]

[spring-projects-issues]

Kenny MacLeod opened SPR-6660 and commented

Having recently encountered an obscure bug where a bean definition had both scope="prototype" and destroy-method specified, I'd like to suggest that when the bean scope is "prototype", the bean definition is not allowed to also specify destroy-method, since it will never be invoked.

Ideally, this would also apply to @PreDestroy-annotated bean classes, throwing an exception when the bean definition is parsed, but that might be a step too far.
