/**
* The method maintains a strictly nondecreasing lock held count on the current thread for any locks
* that were held prior to the method call. The same property must in general be true of all the
* methods it calls, which should themselves be annotated as {@code @ReleasesNoLocks} or a stronger
* annotation such as {@code @}{@link SideEffectFree}.
*
* The method might acquire locks but then release them, or might acquire locks but not release
* them (in which case it should also be annotated with {@literal @}{@link EnsuresLockHeld} or
* {@literal @}{@link EnsuresLockHeldIf}).
*
*
This is the default for methods being type-checked that have no {@code @}{@link LockingFree},
* {@code @}{@link MayReleaseLocks}, {@code @}{@link SideEffectFree}, or {@code @}{@link Pure}
* annotation.
*
*
{@code @ReleasesNoLocks} provides a guarantee unlike {@code @}{@link MayReleaseLocks}, which
* provides no guarantees. However, {@code @ReleasesNoLocks} provides a weaker guarantee than
* {@code @}{@link LockingFree}.
