public @interface Value {
	
If you specify a static constructor name, then the generated constructor will be private, and
instead a static factory method is created that other classes can use to create instances.
We suggest the name: "of", like so:
    public @Value(staticConstructor = "of") class Point { final int x, y; }

Default: No static constructor, instead the normal constructor is public.
Returns:
Name of static 'constructor' method to generate (blank = generate a normal constructor)./**
