Here is the first in a series of changes to add type annotation support to reflection.

While this adds overhead all instances of Field, Constructor, and Method we need this change in order to coordinate with the changes going in to HotSpot There is a plan to remove the additional overhead by consolidating all annotation fields, though this will have to wait a bit.
