1. improve extension API documentation and resolve some open questions …

   - renamed/moved `AnnotationInfo.MEMBER_VALUE` to `AnnotationMember.VALUE`
   - replaced the phrase "component type" with "element type" when speaking
     about arrays, because JLS uses both and each has a different meaning
   - removed `ContextConfig`, custom context registration is now fully
     handled in `MetaAnnotations`
   - removed unnecessarily concrete language from `@SkipIfPortableExtensionPresent`
   - methods in the `Types` class now have more specific return types
   - implementations of `AnnotationInfo`, `AnnotationMember` and `AnnotationTarget`
     are now required to define `equals` and `hashCode`, and are explicitly
     not required to use a single object to represent a single construct
   - the `ClassInfo` declaration is now required to return annotations
     `@Inherited` from a superclass, per `@Inherited` spec and CDI spec
   - explicitly documented that `ClassInfo` doesn't provide access to nested
     classes or an enclosing class, and `PackageInfo` doesn't provide access
     to package members
   - corrected some language to distinguish between generic classes (before
     type argument application) and parameterized types (after type argument
     application)
   - specified meaning of `MethodInfo.name` and `returnType` for constructors,
     mirroring what reflection does (returning the declaring class)
   - defined how implicit bounds are represented in `TypeVariable`
     and `WildcardType`
   - removed `ObserverInfo.id()`
   - usage of `Optional` was eliminated everywhere
   - instead of "`void` type", we now always use "`void` pseudo-type"
   - added `@since 4.0` tags everywhere
   - changed `@link` tags to `@linkplain` if the link text isn't an identifier
