Status Quo

#17659 introduced support for synthesizing a map (or AnnotationAttributes instance) into an annotation. In addition, it also introduced AnnotatedElementUtils.findAnnotation() methods as a convenience for automatically synthesizing merged AnnotationAttributes when searching with find semantics.

Deliverables

1. Introduce synthesized annotation alternative to getAnnotationAttributes() in AnnotatedElementUtils, analogous to the existing findAnnotation() methods.
