WW-5535 fix(core): enforce class-level HTTP method annotations for wildcard-resolved unannotated methods (#1693)

The WW-5535 change to DefaultActionProxy.resolveMethod() (which made
wildcard-resolved methods report isMethodSpecified()=true) interacted
with HttpMethodInterceptor's if/else-if so that the class-level
annotation branch became unreachable when the resolved method carried
no method-level annotation:

    if (isMethodSpecified()) {
        if (method has annotation) return doIntercept(method);
        // unannotated method falls through silently
    } else if (class has annotation) {
        return doIntercept(class);  // never reached when methodSpecified=true
    }

Convert the else-if to a standalone if so the class-level check is
always evaluated as a fallback. Method-level annotations still take
precedence — they are checked first and return early.

Adds three tests:
- testWildcardResolvedUnannotatedMethodRespectsClassLevelAnnotation:
  GET on a wildcard-resolved unannotated method is rejected when the
  class is @AllowedHttpMethod(POST).
- testWildcardResolvedUnannotatedMethodAllowsPostWithClassLevelAnnotation:
  POST on the same configuration succeeds.
- testWildcardResolvedExecuteRejectsGetThroughRealProxy: end-to-end
  via a real DefaultActionProxy with <action name="Wild-*" method="{1}">,
  resolving to ActionSupport.execute().
