@Data is too encompassing; a way to generate just equals/hashCode and just toString also needed.

Parameters for equals/hashCode and toString generation can then also be created, on newly
created annotations for generating just those method(s).

For equals/hashCode:

'call super.hashCode / super.equals first' (incl check on whether you extend something other
than java.lang.Object if you enable this), a way to exclude fields, or include transient fields.

For toString: exclude fields option, as well as a 'long form' option that prefixes each printed field
with that field's name.

Right now classes which really don't warrant a @ Data will nevertheless be tagged with it just
because people want to avoid having to roll their own equals/hashCode.
