OriginatingElement

```
public @interface OriginatingElement
```
An annotation used to specify the originating element that triggered the code generation of a type. This annotation should only be used on generated code and is meant to be used by code generators that generate Hilt modules, entry points, etc. Failure to use this annotation may mean improper test isolation for generated classes.
This annotation should be used on any generated top-level class that either contains generated modules (or entry points) or contains annotations that will generate modules (or entry points).
Example: Suppose we have the following use of an annotation, MyAnnotation.
```
   class Outer {
     static class Inner {
       @MyAnnotation Foo foo;
     }
   }
 
```
If MyAnnotation generates an entry point, it should be annotated as follows:
```
   @OriginatingElement(topLevelClass = Outer.class)
   @EntryPoint
   @InstallIn(SingletonComponent.class) {
       ...
   }
 
```
