Description
Affected Version: 2.7.5
I created a @WebMvcTest for a controller that implements a generated interface from an openapi spec.
When one of the implemented handlers for example is annotated with @PreAuthorized, in case of a @WebMvcTest spring will create a JdkProxy, in the case when starting this application regularly it will create a cglib proxy.
Unfortunately spring will not detect any handlers in the case of a @WebMvcTest, as it can't find any annotations on the JdkProxy (RequestMappingHandlerMapping:isHandler(Class<?>)) and the test will fail with a 404.
I would expect that both cases will behave similar

Research direction
Start with the @WebMvcTest scenario and inspect AopAutoConfiguration alongside RequestMappingHandlerMapping:isHandler(Class<?>), comparing the JDK-proxy behavior with a regular application startup. Done means handlers annotated with @PreAuthorized are discovered consistently in the slice test and the request no longer fails with a 404.
