Mark pure Repository SpEL Components for Removal

After introducing support for Value Expressions, we now no longer require components that only support SpEL without following the newly introduced Value Expressions API. Therefore, we’re deprecating QueryMethodEvaluationContextProvider (and its reactive variants), and SpelEvaluator for removal in the next major release.

Please migrate off this API towards their Value Expression replacements.
