Allows you to provide @Immutable
with a list of classes which

for its immutability and @Immutable
will do no further checks.

(knownImmutableClasses = [Address]) class Person { String first, last Address address }@TupleConstructor
class Address { final String street }
Allows you to provide @Immutable

(knownImmutables = ['address'])
class Person {
