/**
 * <div>
 * Ensures that exception classes (classes with names conforming to some pattern
 * and explicitly extending classes with names conforming to other
 * pattern) are immutable, that is, that they have only final fields.
 * </div>
 *
 * <p>
 * The current algorithm is very simple: it checks that all members of exception are final.
 * The user can still mutate an exception's instance (e.g. Throwable has a method called
 * {@code setStackTrace} which changes the exception's stack trace). But, at least, all
 * information provided by this exception type is unchangeable.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * Rationale: Exception instances should represent an error
 * condition. Having non-final fields not only allows the state to be
 * modified by accident and therefore mask the original condition but
 * also allows developers to accidentally forget to set the initial state.
 * In both cases, code catching the exception could draw incorrect
 * conclusions based on the state.
 * </p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>
 * Property {@code extendedClassNameFormat} - Specify pattern for extended class names.
 * Type is {@code java.util.regex.Pattern}.
 * Default value is {@code "^.*Exception$|^.*Error$|^.*Throwable$"}.
 * </li>
 * <li>
 * Property {@code format} - Specify pattern for exception class names.
 * Type is {@code java.util.regex.Pattern}.
 * Default value is {@code "^.*Exception$|^.*Error$|^.*Throwable$"}.
