Spring Framework 5.2 introduced a regression in our annotation
processing support when the MergedAnnotations API was introduced.
Consequently, prior to this commit, our "annotation attributes as a Map
or AnnotationAttributes instance" support no longer stored exceptions
thrown while attempting to load a type referenced by an annotation
attribute. Instead, the exception was thrown immediately.
To address that, this commit revises our MergedAnnotation.asMap()
support so that it now tracks such exceptions in the map instead of
immediately throwing them. This allows map functionality such as
contains(attributeName), keySet(), etc. to continue to function
properly. In addition, the internal getRequiredAttribute() method in
AnnotationAttributes once again properly throws the original exception
wrapped in an IllegalArgumentException whenever a caller invokes one of
the convenience methods such as getClass() and getClassArray().
Note that this affects both asMap() variants as well as
asAnnotationAttributes().
In addition, this commit reverts the fix applied in 00fbd91cca since
it is no longer necessary.
