The container allows scope types with invalid @Target values
------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: WBRI-209
                 URL: https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/WBRI-209
             Project: Web Beans
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0.BETA1
            Reporter: Shane Bryzak

In section 2.4.2 the spec states:

"A scope type is a Java annotation defined as @Target({TYPE, METHOD, FIELD}) and @Retention(RUNTIME). All scope
types must also specify the @javax.context.ScopeType meta-annotation."

However, the container is allowing scope types with a target for example of @Target({TYPE, METHOD}).  The spec does not state what the behaviour should be when an invalid scope type is encountered (possibly a DefinitionException on deployment?)
