Description

When configuring an application with spring cloud stream, if there is a bean that implements a functional interface even if its purpose is neither to publish nor to subscribe to events, spring cloud stream detects it and tries to create the provisioning of the target, and even if the bean is a supplier, it even sends events.

This happens as long as there is no more than one bean in the spring context of type Function, Consumer or Supplier, even if you set the property "spring.cloud.function.scan.enabled" to false.

This can be a problem in applications where you only want to use StreamBridge to produce events and for other reasons there is a bean that implements a functional interface in the spring context.

Is this the desired behaviour?

To Reproduce
Attached is an application that reproduces the problem.
demoStreamKafka.zip

Version of the framework
spring-cloud 2020.0.2
spring-cloud-stream 3.1.2

Research direction

Start by running the attached demoStreamKafka.zip application with spring-cloud 2020.0.2 and spring-cloud-stream 3.1.2. Inspect how a single Function, Consumer, or Supplier bean is detected when spring.cloud.function.scan.enabled is false, and compare that with the intended StreamBridge-only use case. Done means the expected binding behavior is established and the reproduction no longer provisions or sends unintended events.
