Documentation/Javadoc implies @SimpleBuilder is inherited, but it is not

[AndreasIgel]

Summary

@SimpleBuilder is not meta-annotated with java.lang.annotation.Inherited, and BuilderProcessor collects types via RoundEnvironment.getElementsAnnotatedWith(...), which only returns inherited annotations when the annotation type itself is @Inherited.

I verified this with temporary sanity tests:

• A parent with plain @SimpleBuilder and an unannotated child class does not produce a builder for the child.
• A custom annotation meta-annotated with @SimpleBuilder.Template and @Inherited, placed on a parent, does produce a builder for an unannotated child.

So in practice only @SimpleBuilder.Template (via custom annotations that themselves are @Inherited) is inherited, not the plain @SimpleBuilder annotation.

Places that currently imply @SimpleBuilder is inherited

• core/src/main/java/org/javahelpers/simple/builders/core/annotations/SimpleBuilder.java class-level Javadoc: "when an inherited @SimpleBuilder or @SimpleBuilder.Template would otherwise trigger it"
• docs/CONFIGURATION.md (## Excluding Types from Builder Generation): "when a class inherits @SimpleBuilder or an @SimpleBuilder.Template annotation from a parent" and "even if ParentDto carries @SimpleBuilder or an @Inherited template annotation"
• Ignore4BuilderGeneration.java Javadoc: "even if @SimpleBuilder or @SimpleBuilder.Template annotation is inherited from a parent type"

Suggested fix

SimpleBuilder should get inherited too and the documentation should be checked and possibly updated regarding inheritance.
