/**
* Generates implementations for the <code>equals</code> and <code>hashCode</code> methods inherited by all objects.
* <p>
* If either method already exists, then <code>@EqualsAndHashCode</code> will not generate that particular method.
* If they all exist, <code>@EqualsAndHashCode</code> generates no methods, and emits a warning instead to highlight
* that its doing nothing at all. The parameter list and return type are not relevant when deciding to skip generation of
* a method; any method named <code>hashCode</code> will make <code>@EqualsAndHashCode</code> not generate that method,
* for example.
* <p>
* All fields that are non-static and non-transient are used in the equality check and hashCode generation. You can exclude
* more fields by specifying them in the <code>exclude</code> parameter.
* <p>
* Normally, auto-generating <code>hashCode</code> and <code>equals</code> implementations in a subclass is a bad idea, as
* the superclass also defines fields, for which equality checks/hashcodes won't be auto-generated. Therefore, a warning
* is emitted when you try. Instead, you can set the <code>callSuper</code> parameter to <em>true</em> which will call
* <code>super.equals</code> and <code>super.hashCode</code>. Doing this with <code>java.lang.Object</code> as superclass is
* pointless, so, conversely, setting this flag when <em>NOT</em> extending something (other than Object) will also generate
* a warning. Be aware that not all implementations of <code>equals</code> correctly handle being called from a subclass!
* Fortunately, lombok-generated <code>equals</code> implementations do correctly handle it.
* <p>
* Array fields are handled by way of {@link java.util.Arrays#deepEquals(Object[], Object[])} where necessary, as well
* as <code>deepHashCode</code>. The downside is that arrays with circular references (arrays that contain themselves,
* possibly indirectly) results in calls to <code>hashCode</code> and <code>equals</code> throwing a
* {@link java.lang.StackOverflowError}. However, the implementations for java's own {@link java.util.ArrayList} suffer
* from the same flaw.
