/**
 * Annotates a type that has an auto-generated builder.
 *
 * <h3>Quick start</h3>
 *
 * <p>Create your value type (e.g. {@code Person}) as an interface or abstract class, containing
 * an abstract accessor method for each desired field. This accessor must be non-void,
 * parameterless, and start with 'get' or 'is'. Add the {@code @FreeBuilder} annotation to your
 * class, and it will automatically generate an implementing class and a package-visible builder API
 * ({@code Person_Builder}), which you must subclass. For instance:
 *
 * <p><blockquote><pre> {@literal @}FreeBuilder
 * public interface Person {
 *   /** Returns the person's full (English) name. *{@literal /}
 *   String getName();
 *   /** Returns the person's age in years, rounded down. *{@literal /}
 *   int getAge();
 *   /** Builder of {{@literal @}link Person} instances. *{@literal /}
 *   class Builder extends Person_Builder { }
 * }</pre></blockquote>
 *
 * <p>You can now use the {@code Builder} class:
 *
 * <p><blockquote><pre> Person person = new Person.Builder()
 *     .setName("Phil")
 *     .setAge(31)
 *     .build();
 * System.out.println(person);  // Person{name=Phil, age=31}</pre></blockquote></p>
