Description
While working on #31041, I encountered a pleasant surprise: AnnotatedTypeMetadata.getAnnotationAttributes() actually supports full @AliasFor semantics.
The Javadoc for getAnnotationAttributes() has historically stated that it supported "attribute overrides on composed annotations"; however, it turns out that it actually supports @AliasFor in general, including attribute aliases within a given annotation.
This is likely a result of the switch to the MergedAnnotations API in Spring Framework 5.2.
We should therefore document that.
