/**
 * Visibility is an aspect of a Kotlin declaration regulating where that declaration is accessible in the source code.
 * Visibility can be changed with one of the following modifiers: `public`, `protected`, `internal`, `private`.
 *
 * Note that some Java visibilities such as package-private and protected (which also gives access to items from the same package)
 * cannot be represented in Kotlin, so there's no [KVisibility] value corresponding to them.
 *
 * See the [Kotlin language documentation](https://kotlinlang.org/docs/reference/visibility-modifiers.html)
 * for more information.
