Description

Describe the bug
When upgrading to version 3.1.0 I noticed that the bootstrap.yaml file wasn't read anymore. I then moved the content to application.yaml and noted that the integration with vault started to work, but not the database config. Looking at the documentation didn't give me any insight in how this was supposed to be solved.

In the end I resorted to add a dependency to spring-cloud-starter-bootstrap and move back the config to bootstrap.yaml. This working.

Research direction

Start by comparing the documented database configuration with the behavior described for bootstrap.yaml and application.yaml in Spring Cloud Vault 3.1. Review the configuration documentation and relevant upgrade guidance first; this is done when the supported placement, required dependency, and database setup are clearly explained.
