Using an annotation to exclude a class does not exclude the companion object

[efenderbosch-atg]

Describe the bug

I've got a simple annotation to exclude classes from kover.

@Target(AnnotationTarget.CLASS, AnnotationTarget.FUNCTION)
annotation class KoverIgnore(@Suppress("unused") val reason: String)

It is configured like this in build.gradle.kts:

koverReport {
    filters {
        excludes {
            annotatedBy(
                "org.springframework.context.annotation.Configuration",
                "KoverIgnore"
            )
        }
    }
}

I'm using it on a class like this:

@Service
@KoverIgnore("trivial disabled implementation")
class DisabledEmailVerificationService : EmailVerificationService {
    override suspend fun sendVerificationEmail(lead: Lead): String? {
        LOG.info("email verification is not enabled")
        return null
    }

    companion object {
        private val LOG = KotlinLogging.logger { }
    }
}

The coverage report is still flagging the companion object and private LOG as not covered:

If I also put my annotation on the companion object then the private val LOG = KotlinLogging.logger { } line is flagged as not covered.

Errors
None

Expected behavior
Members of a companion object, especially private members, should not be expected to be covered by tests if the containing class has been excluded from coverage.

Reproducer
Code examples above.
