`AnnotationBasedPersistentProperty.validateAnnotation(…)` compares declared annotations with merged annotations

[pcallahan-r7]

Declaring @table on a record class works fine, but @PrimaryKeyClass does not.

For instance:

    @PrimaryKeyClass
    record Key(
            @PrimaryKeyColumn(name = "a", ordinal = 0, type = PrimaryKeyType.PARTITIONED ) UUID a,
            @PrimaryKeyColumn(name = "b", ordinal = 1, type = PrimaryKeyType.PARTITIONED) String b,
            @PrimaryKeyColumn(name = "c", ordinal = 2, type = PrimaryKeyType.CLUSTERED) String c) {}

    @Table(value = "mytable")
    record SomeItem(@PrimaryKey Key id,
                                  ...) { }

throws this exception:

Changing just the Key class to a regular class works fine:

    @PrimaryKeyClass
    class Key {
        @PrimaryKeyColumn(name = "a", ordinal = 0, type = PrimaryKeyType.PARTITIONED)
        UUID   a;
        @PrimaryKeyColumn(name = "b", ordinal = 1, type = PrimaryKeyType.PARTITIONED)
        String b;
        @PrimaryKeyColumn(name = "c", ordinal = 2, type = PrimaryKeyType.CLUSTERED)
        String c;

        public Key(UUID a, String b, String c) {
            this.customer = a;
            this.appId = b;
            this.attackId = c;
        }
    }

    @Table(value = "mytable")
    record SomeItem(@PrimaryKey Key id,
                                  ...) { }

Thanks for report. The issue is caused because we compare a merged annotation with the declared annotation and Spring's merged annotations hydrate also aliases. Furthermore, Java records copy annotations to their accessors and therefore the annotation gets declared twice as of the bytecode. We can fix the issue easily in Spring Data Commons.
