/**
 * Denotes that the annotated method should only be executed by the referenced Executor or Handler.
 * <p>
 * Example:
 * <pre>
 * final Executor executor = new ThreadPoolExecutor();
 *
 * public void doSomething() {
 *     executor.execute(this::doSomethingOnExecutor);
 * }
 *
 * {@literal @}ExecutedBy("executor")
 * void doSomethingOnExecutor() {

 * }</pre>
 *
 * <p>This can be used to denote that it is not safe to call this method when not executed by a
 * specific {@link Executor}, if, for instance, the Executor provides certain guarantees of which
 * thread the code will run on or guarantees of sequential (non-concurrent) execution.
