     * {@return {@code true} if this method is a bridge
     * method; returns {@code false} otherwise}
     *
     * @apiNote
     * A bridge method is a {@linkplain isSynthetic synthetic} method
     * created by a Java compiler alongside a method originating from
     * the source code. Bridge methods are used by Java compilers in
     * various circumstances to span differences in Java programming
     * language semantics and JVM semantics.
     *
     * <p>One example use of bridge methods is as a technique for a
     * Java compiler to support <i>covariant overrides</i>, where a
     * subclass overrides a method and gives the new method a more
     * specific return type than the method in the superclass.  While
     * the Java language specification forbids a class declaring two
     * methods with the same parameter types but a different return
     * type, the virtual machine does not. A common case where
     * covariant overrides are used is for a {@link
     * java.lang.Cloneable Cloneable} class where the {@link
     * Object#clone() clone} method inherited from {@code
     * java.lang.Object} is overridden and declared to return the type
     * of the class. For example, {@code Object} declares
     * <pre>{@code protected Object clone() throws CloneNotSupportedException {...}}</pre>
     * and {@code EnumSet<E>} declares its language-level {@linkplain
     * java.util.EnumSet#clone() covariant override}
     * <pre>{@code public EnumSet<E> clone() {...}}</pre>
     * If this technique was being used, the resulting class file for
     * {@code EnumSet} would have two {@code clone} methods, one
     * returning {@code EnumSet<E>} and the second a bridge method
     * returning {@code Object}. The bridge method is a JVM-level
     * override of {@code Object.clone()}.  The body of the {@code
     * clone} bridge method calls its non-bridge counterpart and
     * returns its result.
