/**
 * Instructs the Kotlin compiler to treat annotated Java class as pure implementation of given Kotlin interface.
 * "Pure" means here that each type parameter of class becomes non-platform type argument of that interface.
 *
 * Example:
 *
 * ```java
 * class MyList extends AbstractList { ... }
 * ```
 *
 * Methods defined in `MyList` use `T` as platform, i.e. it's possible to perform unsafe operation in Kotlin:
 *
 * ```kotlin
 *  MyList().add(null) // compiles
 * ```
 *
 * ```java
 * @PurelyImplements("kotlin.collections.MutableList")
 * class MyPureList extends AbstractList { ... }
 * ```
 *
 * Methods defined in `MyPureList` overriding methods in `MutableList` use `T` as non-platform types:
 *
 * ```kotlin
 *  MyPureList().add(null) // Error
 *  MyPureList().add(null) // Ok
 * ```
