Descripción
Uh... so this is partially for science, I guess. It's obscure enough to not matter, but I'd like to understand the reasoning. I stumbled upon this because I am working on a smaller databind library myself and of course I'm always comparing to Jackson for sensible defaults. Observe the following:
```java
record R(Optional> s) { }
R r = new ObjectMapper()
.registerModule(new Jdk8Module())
.readValue("{}", new TypeReference<>() {});
assertFalse(r.s.isPresent());
```
Here, an `Optional>` property is absent from the JSON to deserialize. Naively, I expected the property to be set to an empty optional, but actually it's `Optional.of(Optional.empty())`, so the snippet above crashes.
I didn't find any tests which explicitly cover this here, so I guess it wasn't really considered a worthwhile edge case. But I think following through with these weird cases helps in figuring out consistent behaviour in general. Do you think that the current behaviour (`Optional.of(Optional.empty())`) is correct or do you think `Optional.empty()` would be correct?
