[ISSUE: #763] ClassLevelFieldMappingGenerator should ignore synthetic fields
Purpose
Currently ClassLevelFieldMappingGenerator extracts all fields by reflection. This also includes synthetic fields. This causes problems if source code is instrumented e.g. by JaCoCo. For JaCoCo this can lead to out of memory situations.
Approach
As described here in the JaCoCo Faq, the PR ignores synthetic fields in ClassLevelFieldMappingGenerator.
