The fix for JDK-8256693 too often produces a ParameterizedType as the result of getAnnotatedReceiverType().getType() . A ParameterizedType is necessary only when this type or any of its transitive owner types has type parameters, but should be avoided if this isn't the case.
This implementation recursively creates a chain of ParameterizedTypes starting from the outermost type that has type parameters.
