This annotation can be applied to a package, class or method to indicate that
the methods in that element have nonnull return values by default unless
there is:
- An explicit nullness annotation
- The method overrides a method in a superclass (in which case the
annotation of the corresponding parameter in the superclass applies)
- there is a default annotation applied to a more tightly nested element.
