 * annotations as specified in RFC 7952. The only exception is the filter type (in NETCONF get operations)
 * and edit-config's operation attributes. In XML, they are represented as standard XML attributes. In JSON,
 * they are represented as JSON elements starting with the '@' character (for more information, see the
 * YANG metadata RFC.
