3.5.0 throws exception when returning different entity from @Query

[eryanv]

The 3.5.0 release line throws a org.hibernate.query.SyntaxException when a @query tries to return a property of an object which itself is a different entity. A basic example of the entity relationships and repository method are shown below. This code attached works as expected under 3.4.5, where the country property of the entity is returned for use.

``
@entity
public class Country {
public Country(Integer id, String isoCode, String name) { this.id = id; this.iso3Code = isoCode; this.name = name; }
public Country() { }

@Id
private Integer id;

@Column(length=3)
private String iso3Code;

@Column(length=50)
private String name;
    // Getters/Setters excluded

}

@entity
public class GroupCountryMapping {
public GroupCountryMapping(String id, String name, Country country) { this.id = id; this.name = name; this.country = country; }
public GroupCountryMapping() { }

@Id
@Column(length=2)
String id;

@Column(length=20)
String name;

@ManyToOne
@JoinColumn(name="country_id", nullable = false, foreignKey=@ForeignKey(name = "Fk_gcm_country"))
Country country;
    // Getters/Setters excluded

}

@repository
public interface GroupCountryMappingRepository extends JpaRepository<GroupCountryMapping,String> {
@query("SELECT country FROM GroupCountryMapping WHERE id=:grp")
Optional getCountryByGroupId(String grp);
}
``

If the query string is updated to SELECT gcm.country FROM GroupCountryMapping gcm WHERE gcm.id=:grp it appears that spring data/hibernate looks for a copy constructor rather than the typical no argument constructor.

Github doesn't seem want to let me upload a sample project, so hopefully this link to the repo:
