[JENKINS-45901] Allow common groovy annotation in Pipeline Shared Library Classes

Currently the following code fails with a cryptic error message:

package org.test.;

import groovy.transform.ToString

@​ToString(includeNames=true)

class X implements Serializable {

 def script

 def A, B

Promotemodul(script, m) {

 this.script = script

 this.A = m.A

 this.B = m.B

 }

}

It would be great if some common annotations (ToString, EqualsAndHashCode...) would be supported in Pipeline Shared Libraries.

Reproduce the example in a Pipeline Shared Library and capture the current cryptic error. Then inspect the workflow-cps-plugin and workflow-cps-global-lib-plugin areas involved in annotation handling; done means common annotations such as ToString and EqualsAndHashCode work in shared-library classes for the reported case.
