Prior to this commit it was possible to search for the 1st merged annotation above an annotated element. It was also possible to search for annotation attributes aggregated from all annotations above an annotated element; however, it was impossible to search for all composed annotations above an annotated element and have the results as synthesized merged annotations instead of a multi-map of attributes. This commit introduces a new findAllMergedAnnotations() method in AnnotatedElementUtils that finds all annotations of the specified type within the annotation hierarchy above the supplied element. For each such annotation found, it merges that annotation's attributes with matching attributes from annotations in lower levels of the annotation hierarchy and synthesizes the results back into an annotation of the specified type. All such merged annotations are collected and returned as a set. Issue: SPR-13486
