Description
As of 6.2, bean definition overriding is made more apparent, and a note in the reference guide discourages users to rely on the feature, see #31288.
In 7.0 we want to deprecate the feature and be more loud if it's still used.

Research direction
Start with the reference guide note described in the issue and review #31288 for the existing treatment of bean definition overriding. Trace where this feature is handled in the Spring Framework and determine the deprecation and more prominent reporting behavior required for 7.0. Done means the feature is deprecated and continued use is clearly reported.
