RFR: fix for repeating annotations on type parameter args

[Werner Dietl]

Hi Joel,

thanks for this fix!

Method Attribute.isContainerTypeCompound is not used. Why do we need it?
isContainerTypeCompound checks for values.size() == 1 whereas
getFirstEmbeddedTC checks values.size() >= 1. Should these checks be
consistent?
I would rename hasUnknownLocation and tryFixLocation to
hasUnknownPosition and tryFixPosition as the field is called position.
Some of the changes in Gen.java and RepeatingTypeAnnotations.java use
too much indentation.

More for Steve: in RepeatingTypeAnnotations.java, what does it mean
when "verify" gets "RuntimeVisibleTypeAnnotations:" passed multiple
times? Is the first time used for Code and the second for the Method
attribute? Should this be handled more explicitly?

Joel, as you're now Committer for the type-annotations repository,
please push there.
I agree that, once all tests pass, we should push to TL - even though
the EG is still discussing some details.

Cheers,
cu, WMD.
