Indirect dependency wrongly scoped as test-only

[pcdavid]

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install Eclipse IDE for Enterprise Java and Web Developers 2023-12 and start it on a fresh workspace.
2. (Optional) Update m2e to the latest snapshot from https://download.eclipse.org/technology/m2e/snapshots/latest/ ("M2E Maven Integration for Eclipse Core 2.4.200.20231119-0901 org.eclipse.m2e.feature" at the moment of this writing).
3. Import the attached project in the workspace. Its a basic Spring Boot project created from start.spring.io with a dependency to Spring Data JPA (and thus Hibernate). It's using Spring Boot 3.0.6 and thus hibernate-core-6.1.7-Final.jar which are not the latest, but the latest versions have deprecated a type used in my reproduction case (though I don't think this is relevant here).
4. The project does not compile because the ModeEnumType it defines has an indirect dependency to org.jboss.logging.Logger which is not in the main build path:

The type org.jboss.logging.Logger cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required type org.hibernate.type.EnumType

In the project's "Maven Dependencies", jboss-logging-3.0.5-final.jar is there, but marked as test-only:

In the project's POM, uncomment the dependency:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.jboss.logging</groupId>
  <artifactId>jboss-logging</artifactId>
</dependency>

Compilation is now OK.

Note that even without the explicit dependency added, the project builds without error:
