Favor local, composed annotations in AnnotatedElementUtils

This commit updates the "get semantics" search algorithm used in
`AnnotatedElementUtils` so that locally declared 'composed annotations'
are favored over inherited annotations.

Specifically, the internal `searchWithGetSemantics()` method now
searches locally declared annotations before searching inherited
annotations.

All TODOs in `AnnotatedElementUtilsTests` have been completed, and all
ignored tests have been reinstated.

* <h3>Support for {@code @Inherited}</h3>
* <p>Methods following <em>get semantics</em> will honor the contract of
* Java's {@link java.lang.annotation.Inherited @Inherited} annotation.
* However, methods following <em>find semantics</em> will ignore the
* presence of {@code @Inherited} since the <em>find</em> search algorithm
* manually traverses type and method hierarchies and thereby implicitly
* supports annotation inheritance without the need for {@code @Inherited}.
* Java's {@link java.lang.annotation.Inherited @Inherited} annotation except
* that locally declared annotations (including custom composed annotations)
* will be favored over inherited annotations. In contrast, methods following
* <em>find semantics</em> will completely ignore the presence of
* {@code @Inherited} since the <em>find</em> search algorithm manually
* traverses type and method hierarchies and thereby implicitly supports
* annotation inheritance without the need for {@code @Inherited}.
