/**
* Applied to a field (which must be static and final). The field is stored as a "constant" allowing
* for trivial serialization of it as an integer tag (see {@code CodecScanner} and {@code
* ObjectCodecRegistry}). In order to do that, a trivial associated "RegisteredSingleton" class is
* generated. Tagging such a field is harmless, and can be done conservatively.
