/**
* This reflection tool is designed to perform advanced method or constructor lookups,
* using a combination of {@link LookupMode} strategies.
*
* It tries to find a constructor of a given datatype, with a given argument
* datatypelist, where types do not have to match formal types (auto-boxing, supertypes, implemented interfaces and type conversions are allowed as
* they are included in the lookup cycles). This expanded version tries a simple call first (exact match, which is provided natively by the Java) and
* when this fails, it generates a list of datatype arrays (signatures) with all possible versions of any type in the original list possible, and
* combinations thereof.
*
* Observe the following (trivial) example:
*
*
* interface Foo {
* void foo(Double value, Fruit fruit, char c);
* }
* abstract class A implements Foo {
* }
* abstract class B extends A {
* }
*
* ClassUtils.findCompatibleJavaMethod(B.class, "foo", EnumSet.allOf(LookupMode.class), double.class, Pear.class, String.class)}
*
*
* In the above example, the method foo will be found by finding all methods named "Foo" on the interfaces implemented by supertype A,
* and then foo's method signature will be matched using autoboxing on the double type, a cast to the Fruit supertype for
* the Pear type and finally by attempting a common conversion from String to char. This will give you a Java
* {@link Method}, but you won't be able to invoke it if it was found using a less strict lookup than one with a simple exact match. There are two
* ways to do this: use {@link #invokeCompatibleMethod(Object, Class, String, Object...)} instead or perform the conversion yourself using {@link
* ValueConversionHelper#convert(Object[], Class[], boolean)} prior to invoking the method. ValueConverter.convert(args,
* method.getParameterTypes()).
*
* A reverse lookup is also possible: given an ordered list of possible types, is a given Method compatible?
*
* Because this lookup is potentially very expensive, a cache is present to store lookup results.
