/**
 * Designates a public API declaration that should not be used internally in the Gradle codebase.
 * This is due to the contract of this public API that is stricter than what is expected in the Gradle internals.
 * 
 * For example, the implementation of such an API might add validations checking third-party
 * plugins or build scripts for compliance with some limitations imposed by Gradle. In the internal
 * code, one does not expect such limitations.
 * 
 * This annotations should only be applied to Gradle public API declarations.
