…eate(). When an `@AutoFactory(implementing = …)` (or `extending`) abstract method has no matching factory `create` overload, AutoFactory used to emit a forwarding stub `return create(args)`. If that abstract method was itself named `create`, the stub called itself and threw `StackOverflowError` at runtime. The usual trigger is forgetting `@Provided` on a constructor parameter, which silently turns that parameter into an extra factory argument. Report a compile-time error that names the unmatched method and points at `@Provided`, instead of generating the recursive stub. Closes #697. Closes #2152. RELNOTES=AutoFactory now reports a compile-time error when an abstract method from an `implementing` or `extending` type does not match any generated factory method, instead of generating a method that fails to compile or calls itself recursively.
