/**
 * Default {@code AnnotationResolver} implementation that merely inspects the
 * {@link MethodInvocation MethodInvocation}'s {@link MethodInvocation#getMethod() target method},
 * and returns {@code targetMethod}.{@link Method#getAnnotation(Class) getAnnotation(class)}.
 * <p/>
 * Unfortunately Java's default reflection API for Annotations is not very robust, and this logic
 * may not be enough - if the incoming method invocation represents a method from an interface,
 * this default logic would not discover the annotation if it existed on the method implementation
 * directly (as opposed to being defined directly in the interface definition).
 * <p/>
 * More complex class hierarchy traversal logic is required to exhaust a method's target object's
 * classes, parent classes, interfaces and parent interfaces.  That logic will likely be added
 * to this implementation in due time, but for now, this implementation relies on the JDK's default
 * {@link Method#getAnnotation(Class) Method.getAnnotation(class)} logic.
