Add javac equivalent class for AnnotationEqualityVisitor - #7692

`@framework/src/main/java/org/checkerframework/framework/ajava/JavacAnnotationEqualityVisitor.java`:
- Around line 27-41: Add a short note to the class Javadoc of
JavacAnnotationEqualityVisitor stating that instances are single-use: once scan
is called and a mismatch is recorded (annotationsMatch toggled and
mismatchedNode1/mismatchedNode2 set), the visitor is not resettable and a new
instance must be created for another scan; reference the fields
annotationsMatch, mismatchedNode1 and mismatchedNode2 (and mention that reset()
is not provided/possible due to the `@MonotonicNonNull` contract) so readers know
the intended lifecycle.
- Around line 127-143: The current defaultAction in
JavacAnnotationEqualityVisitor correctly skips per-node comparison when
annotationsMatch is false but traversal keeps running; to allow an immediate
stop on first mismatch, add an override of scan(Tree, Tree) in
JavacAnnotationEqualityVisitor that checks the annotationsMatch flag and returns
immediately if false, otherwise delegates to super.scan(tree1, tree2); keep
existing defaultAction, annotationsMatch, mismatchedNode1/mismatchedNode2,
getAnnotations and annotationsEqual logic unchanged so the early-exit only
prevents further recursion.
- Around line 25-144: Add unit tests for JavacAnnotationEqualityVisitor to cover
its non-trivial logic: write a test class that constructs minimal javac Tree
instances (or mocks) with annotated ModifiersTree, AnnotatedTypeTree,
TypeParameterTree, PackageTree, ModuleTree, and NewArrayTree and exercise
getAnnotations via the visitor's defaultAction to verify three
scenarios—matching annotations (assert getAnnotationsMatch() == true and
mismatched nodes == null), mismatched annotations (assert getAnnotationsMatch()
== false and getMismatchedNode1()/getMismatchedNode2() point to the differing
trees), and annotation-free nodes (assert empty annotation lists and no
mismatch). Use JavacAnnotationEqualityVisitor, getAnnotations, annotationsEqual,
defaultAction, getAnnotationsMatch, getMismatchedNode1, and getMismatchedNode2
as the referenced symbols when locating code to test.

Thank you for this code. It looks good overall. I have a few suggestions for improvement.
The interface is inconvenient in that clients must call multiple methods, and more importantly it is error-prone in that if a client re-uses a JavacAnnotationEqualityVisitor, the member variables are not re-set by the second call to set(). Therefore, I suggest adding a new method that returns either null or a pair of Trees. (You could use IPair or you could define your own record type.) Then you don't need the current methods getAnnotationsMatch(), getMismatchedNode1(), and getMismatchedNode2(), and clients will never call scan() directly. (Update: I see that CodeRabbit also noted this as a weakness of the current implementation.)
The documentation needs to state that a single mismatch is returned even if multiple mismatches exist.
The documentation should also note that the comparison is order-sensitive: if some node has the same annotations but in a different order, that counts as a mismatch.

This is looking good. With just a few changes, it can be merged. |

@avenger2597 Are you able to take a look at the reviews from May and from this month? Thanks! |

Note GitHub couldn't provide a complete incremental comparison for this pull request, so CodeRabbit is performing a full review instead. This review may take a little longer. |

Adds JavacAnnotationEqualityVisitor, a javac-based replacement for AnnotationEqualityVisitor that extends DoubleJavacVisitor instead of DoubleJavaParserVisitor.
Compares annotations between two javac ASTs using toString()-based comparison, which avoids the clone-and-strip-comments workaround needed by the JavaParser version.
Note :
