/**
* This annotation means that the check contains global context,
* which will be updated while Checkstyle processes files. This also means,
* that all files will be processed by the same check instance.
* This annotation should be used, if a check accumulates some information during the audit,
* and processed only once at the end of the audit (however, the check still
* can produce some messages, while collecting information).
* The check methods and fields should be thread safe, because they may be accessed from others
* threads at the same time.
* Checker guarantees that there will be exactly one check instance
* This is simular to multi-file validation, which checkstyle does not support fully yet.
* Please refer to https://github.com/checkstyle/checkstyle/issues/3540 for details.
