/**
 * A stack walker.
 *
 * <p> The {@link StackWalker#walk walk} method opens a sequential stream
 * of {@link StackFrame StackFrame}s for the current thread and then applies
 * the given function to walk the {@code StackFrame} stream.
 * The stream reports stack frame elements in order, from the top most frame
 * that represents the execution point at which the stack was generated to
 * the bottom most frame.
 * The {@code StackFrame} stream is closed when the {@code walk} method returns.
 * If an attempt is made to reuse the closed stream,
 * {@code IllegalStateException} will be thrown.
 *
 * <p> The {@linkplain Option <em>stack walking options</em>} of a
 * {@code StackWalker} determines the information of
 * {@link StackFrame StackFrame} objects to be returned.
 * By default, stack frames of the reflection API and implementation
 * classes are {@linkplain Option#SHOW_HIDDEN_FRAMES hidden}
 * and {@code StackFrame}s have the class name and method name
 * available but not the {@link StackFrame#getDeclaringClass() Class reference}.
 *
 * <p> {@code StackWalker} is thread-safe. Multiple threads can share
 * a single {@code StackWalker} object to traverse its own stack.
 * A permission check is performed when a {@code StackWalker} is created,
 * according to the options it requests.
 * No further permission check is done at stack walking time.
 *
 * @apiNote
 * Examples
 *
 * <p>1. To find the first caller filtering a known list of implementation class:
 * <pre>{@code
 *     StackWalker walker = StackWalker.getInstance(Option.RETAIN_CLASS_REFERENCE);
 *     Optional<Class<?>> callerClass = walker.walk(s ->
 *         s.map(StackFrame::getDeclaringClass)
 *          .filter(interestingClasses::contains)
 *          .findFirst());
 * }</pre>
 *
 * <p>2. To snapshot the top 10 stack frames of the current thread,
 * <pre>{@code
 *     List<StackFrame> stack = StackWalker.getInstance().walk(s ->
 *         s.limit(10).collect(Collectors.toList()));
 * }</pre>
 *
 * Unless otherwise noted, passing a {@code null} argument to a
 * constructor or method in this {@code StackWalker} class
 * will cause a {@link NullPointerException NullPointerException}
 * to be thrown.

     * <p> This method should be called when a caller frame is present.  If
     * it is called from the bottom most frame on the stack,
     * {@code IllegalCallerException} will be thrown.
     *
     * <p> This method throws {@code UnsupportedOperationException}
     * if this {@code StackWalker} is not configured with the
     * {@link Option#RETAIN_CLASS_REFERENCE RETAIN_CLASS_REFERENCE} option.
     *
     * @apiNote
     * For example, {@code Util::getResourceBundle} loads a resource bundle
     * on behalf of the caller.  It invokes {@code getCallerClass} to identify
     * the class whose method called {@code Util::getResourceBundle}.
     * Then, it obtains the class loader of that class, and uses
     * the class loader to load the resource bundle. The caller class
     * in this example is {@code MyTool}.
     *
     * <pre>{@code
     * class Util {
     *     private final StackWalker walker = StackWalker.getInstance(Option.RETAIN_CLASS_REFERENCE);
     *     public ResourceBundle getResourceBundle(String bundleName) {
     *         Class<?> caller = walker.getCallerClass();
     *         return ResourceBundle.getBundle(bundleName, Locale.getDefault(), caller.getClassLoader());
     *     }
     * }
     *
     * class MyTool {
     *     private final Util util = new Util();
     *     private void init() {
     *         ResourceBundle rb = util.getResourceBundle("mybundle");
     *     }
     * }
     * }</pre>
     *
     * An equivalent way to find the caller class using the
     * {@link StackWalker#walk walk} method is as follows
     * (filtering the reflection frames, {@code MethodHandle} and hidden frames
     * not shown below):
     * <pre>{@code
     *     Optional<Class<?>> caller = walker.walk(s ->
     *         s.map(StackFrame::getDeclaringClass)
     *          .skip(2)
     *          .findFirst());
     * }</pre>
     *
     * When the {@code getCallerClass} method is called from a method that
     * is the bottom most frame on the stack,
     * for example, {@code static public void main} method launched by the
     * {@code java} launcher, or a method invoked from a JNI attached thread,
     * {@code IllegalCallerException} is thrown.
     *
     * @return {@code Class} object of the caller's caller invoking this method.
     *
     * @throws UnsupportedOperationException if this {@code StackWalker}
     *         is not configured with {@link Option#RETAIN_CLASS_REFERENCE
     *         Option.RETAIN_CLASS_REFERENCE}.
     * @throws IllegalCallerException if there is no caller frame, i.e.
     *         when this {@code getCallerClass} method is called from a method
     *         which is the last frame on the stack.
