@Conditional on superclass is ignored [SPR-10840]

[spring-projects-issues]

Phil Webb opened SPR-10840 and commented

It appears that @Configuration classes that inherit @Conditional annotations are not being evaluated. This is probably a regression of the @Profile behavior.

After careful consideration we have decided not to support this. There are too many edge cases and complications and it was not how @Profile previously worked.
