/**
 * The RuntimeInvisibleAnnotations attribute is similar to the
 * RuntimeVisibleAnnotations attribute, except that the annotations represented by
 * a RuntimeInvisibleAnnotations attribute must not be made available for return
 * by reflective APIs, unless the JVM has been instructed to retain these
 * annotations via some implementation-specific mechanism such as a command line
 * flag. In the absence of such instructions, the JVM ignores this attribute.
 * <p>
 * The RuntimeInvisibleAnnotations attribute is a variable length attribute in the
 * attributes table of the ClassFile, field_info, and method_info structures. The
 * RuntimeInvisibleAnnotations attribute records runtime-invisible Java
 * programming language annotations on the corresponding class, method, or field.
 * Each ClassFile, field_info, and method_info structure may contain at most one
 * RuntimeInvisibleAnnotations attribute, which records all the runtime-invisible
 * Java programming language annotations on the corresponding program element.
 * <p>
 * The RuntimeInvisibleAnnotations attribute has the following format:
 * <pre>
 *   RuntimeInvisibleAnnotations_attribute {
 *     u2 attribute_name_index;
 *     u4 attribute_length;
 *     u2 num_annotations;
 *     annotation annotations[num_annotations];
 *   }
 * </pre>
 * The items of the RuntimeInvisibleAnnotations structure are as follows:
 * <dl>
 * <dt>attribute_name_index</dt>
 * <dd>The value of the attribute_name_index item must be a valid index into the
 *     constant_pool table. The constant_pool entry at that index must be a
 *     CONSTANT_Utf8_info structure representing the string
 *     "RuntimeInvisibleAnnotations".</dd>
 * <dt>attribute_length</dt>
 * <dd>The value of the attribute_length item indicates the length of the
 *     attribute, excluding the initial six bytes. The value of the
 *     attribute_length item is thus dependent on the number of runtime-invisible
 *     annotations represented by the structure, and their values.</dd>
 * <dt>num_annotations</dt>
 * <dd>The value of the num_annotations item gives the number of runtime-invisible
 *     annotations represented by the structure. Note that a maximum of 65535
 *     runtime-invisible Java programming language annotations may be directly
 *     attached to a program element.</dd>
 * <dt>annotations</dt>
 * <dd>Each value of the annotations table represents a single runtime-invisible
 *     {@link oracle.toplink.libraries.asm.attrs.Annotation annotation} on a program element.</dd>
 * </dl>
