Description

I'm moving to spring boot 3, generating the interface only classes, all annotations work correctly.
When starting in spring the class is scanned, but for the generated interfaces with default methods
spring logs ::

o.s.c.a.ClassPathBeanDefinitionScanner : Ignored because not a concrete top-level class:

I've tested with spring boot versions 3.0.x 3.1.x and 3.2.x and the same issue appears

Steps to reproduce

Generate the interface as normal from the contract (my generator config is above)

enable spring logging to see

logging.level.org.springframework.core.io.support=DEBUG
logging.level.org.springframework.context.annotation=DEBUG

Watch the interface be ignored.

You need to implement your interfaces, and annotate them with @RestController
you don't need any other annotation.
The default interface methods sadly will be ignored.
