I had occasion to read over the javadoc sources in java.lang.Object recently and noticed a few items that could be updated.
There are some new or expanded API notes referring to methods in java.util.Objects. I added these references as apiNote items rather than, say, `@see` tags since `@see` tag changes would propagate into classes that overrode the methods in questions.
Changing toString to use an inline `@return` tag has the consequence of omitting a trailing period, "." in the "Returns" section of its javadoc. This also omits a trailing period in subclasses that use the `@return` statement of Object.toString in their own toString method. Likewise for hashCode.
