Optimize @configuration class parsing a little

Update `ConfigurationClassParser` to skip `java.lang.annotation` types
which were often processed but would never provide useful results. Also
use a single shared immutable `SourceClass` instance to represent
`Object.class`.

Closes spring-projectsgh-22563
