      public class IonAnnotationIntrospector
      extends com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.introspect.NopAnnotationIntrospector

  A Jackson `AnnotationIntrospector` (essentially an interceptor for serializer/deserializer construction) that provides type serializer/deserializers that write/read Ion type annotations.

  The logic in this class is very similar to `JacksonAnnotationIntrospector`! We both look at the @JsonTypeResolver, etc annotations and try to make type resolvers.

  This class adds a `resolveAllTypes` override, which allows for universal polymorphism without needing any annotations or mixins, and also permits top-level polymorphism -- deserialize to any object without providing its actual type, as long as type information was serialized. (i.e., ObjectMapper#readValue(serializedData, Object.class))

  Note: the provided `TypeSerializer` will only write type annotations if the configured `TypeIdResolver` returns non-null.

  Note: `TypeDeserializer` are actually full-on value deserializers -- all deserialization logic goes through them (unlike TypeSerializers, which just write the type metadata).

      Provides a `TypeResolverBuilder` if the `AnnotatedClass` is enabled for type resolving, and a `TypeIdResolver` can be instantiated.

      The AnnotatedClass is enabled for type resolving if either `resolveAllTypes` is set, or shouldResolveType() returns true.

      We look for a TypeIdResolver by checking for a `JsonTypeIdResolver` annotation, and fallback to `defaultIdResolver()`.
      Overrides:
        `findTypeResolver` in class `com.fasterxml.jackson.databind.AnnotationIntrospector`
      Parameters:
        `config` - a serialization or deserialization config object
        `ac` - an AnnotatedClass representing a (statically configured) base type for type resolution
        `baseType` - a JavaType representing the same class
      Returns:
        a type resolver builder that reads and writes Ion type annotations, or null
