* Marker annotation that can be used to define a non-static,

* a set of key/value pairs, to be serialized as part of containing POJO
* (similar to unwrapping) along with regular property values it has.
* This typically serves as a counterpart
* to "any setter" mutators (see {@link JsonAnySetter}).
* Note that the return type of annotated methods must be
* {@link java.util.Map}).
*
* As with {@link JsonAnySetter}, only one property should be annotated
* with this annotation; if multiple methods are annotated, an exception
* may be thrown.
