Deprecate LocalVariableTableParameterNameDiscoverer completely

LocalVariableTableParameterNameDiscoverer is not registered by default anymore now.
Java sources should be compiled with `-parameters` instead (available since Java 8).
Also retaining standard Java parameter names for all of Spring's Kotlin sources now.

Closes gh-29531
