/**
* Helper class that collects the methods a task or nested element
* holds to set attributes, create nested elements or hold PCDATA
* elements.
*
* It contains hashtables containing classes that use introspection
* to handle all the invocation of the project-component specific methods.
*
* This class is somewhat complex, as it implements the O/X mapping between
* Ant XML and Java class instances. This is not the best place for someone new
* to Ant to start contributing to the codebase, as a change here can break the
* entire system in interesting ways. Always run a full test of Ant before checking
* in/submitting changes to this file.
*
* The class is final and has a private constructor.
* To get an instance for a specific (class,project) combination,
* use {@link #getHelper(Project,Class)}.
* This may return an existing version, or a new one
* ...do not make any assumptions about its uniqueness, or its validity after the Project
* instance has finished its build.

     * Each method is examined in turn, and the following rules are applied:
     * <p>
     * <ul>
     * <li>If the method is <code>Task.setLocation(Location)</code>,
     * <code>Task.setTaskType(String)</code>
     * or <code>TaskContainer.addTask(Task)</code>, it is ignored. These
     * methods are handled differently elsewhere.
     * <li><code>void addText(String)</code> is recognised as the method for
     * adding PCDATA to a bean.
     * <li><code>void setFoo(Bar)</code> is recognised as a method for
     * setting the value of attribute <code>foo</code>, so long as
     * <code>Bar</code> is non-void and is not an array type.
     * As of Ant 1.8, a Resource or FileProvider parameter overrides a java.io.File parameter;
     * in practice the only effect of this is to allow objects rendered from
     * the 1.8 PropertyHelper implementation to be used as Resource parameters,
     * since Resources set from Strings are resolved as project-relative files
     * to preserve backward compatibility.  Beyond this, non-String
     * parameter types always overload String parameter types; these are
     * the only guarantees made in terms of priority.
     * <li><code>Foo createBar()</code> is recognised as a method for
     * creating a nested element called <code>bar</code> of type
     * <code>Foo</code>, so long as <code>Foo</code> is not a primitive or
     * array type.
     * <li><code>void addConfiguredFoo(Bar)</code> is recognised as a
     * method for storing a pre-configured element called
     * <code>foo</code> and of type <code>Bar</code>, so long as
     * <code>Bar</code> is not an array, primitive or String type.
     * <code>Bar</code> must have an accessible constructor taking no
     * arguments.
     * <li><code>void addFoo(Bar)</code> is recognised as a method for storing
     * an element called <code>foo</code> and of type <code>Bar</code>, so
     * long as <code>Bar</code> is not an array, primitive or String type.
     * <code>Bar</code> must have an accessible constructor taking no
     * arguments. This is distinct from the 'addConfigured' idiom in that
     * the nested element is added to the parent immediately after it is
     * constructed; in practice this means that <code>addFoo(Bar)</code> should
     * do little or nothing with its argument besides storing it for later use.
     * </ul>
     * Note that only one method is retained to create/set/addConfigured/add
     * any element or attribute.
     *
     * @param bean The bean type to introspect.
     *             Must not be <code>null</code>.
