Weld fails to start on Java 17 (since build 21)

[tomas-langer]

Since build OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 17-ea+21-1866) weld fails to start due to issue in EnumAnnotationValue.

This issue was fixed in PR #15, though it was never merged.

How to reproduce (with Weld):

• create a bean with an annotation that uses an enum value
• start Weld

How to reproduce in general:

• create a ClassFile from a class with an enum annotation value
• load the class
• call getAnnotations() on the loaded class

Stack trace (from Weld):

If I can trust GitHub, it's since build 20: openjdk/jdk@8758b55

(Yes, I'm looking into this exact problem right now, too! :-) )

[Ladicek]

It might take a while, but we'll get the fix merged and released.

[manovotn]

Resolved by #15.
I will get some intel on how releasing works for this repo so we can get a version out.
