/**
* Report all calls of a method that has this annotation, including calls of methods that override
* this method. Note that calls through a supertype, where the method is not annotated, cannot be
* reported.
*
* <p>For example, assume three classes A, B, and C, that each implement/override a method m and A
* <: B <: C. Assume that B.m is annotated as ReportCall. Calls of A.m and B.m will then be
* reported, but calls of C.m will not be reported, even though the C reference might point to a B
* object. Therefore, add the ReportCall annotation high enough in the subtype hierarchy.
