/**
 * <p>
 * Checks cyclomatic complexity against a specified limit. It is a measure of
 * the minimum number of possible paths through the source and therefore the
 * number of required tests, it is not about quality of code! It is only
 * applied to methods, c-tors,
 * <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/java/javaOO/initial.html">
 * static initializers and instance initializers</a>.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * The complexity is equal to the number of decision points {@code + 1}.
 * Decision points:
 * </p>
 * <ul>
 * <li>
 * {@code if}, {@code while}, {@code do}, {@code for},
 * {@code ?:}, {@code catch}, {@code switch}, {@code case} statements.
 * </li>
 * <li>
 *  Operators {@code &amp;&amp;} and {@code ||} in the body of target.
 * </li>
 * <li>
 *  {@code when} expression in case labels, also known as guards.
 * </li>
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * By pure theory level 1-4 is considered easy to test, 5-7 OK, 8-10 consider
 * re-factoring to ease testing, and 11+ re-factor now as testing will be painful.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * When it comes to code quality measurement by this metric level 10 is very
 * good level as a ultimate target (that is hard to archive). Do not be ashamed
 * to have complexity level 15 or even higher, but keep it below 20 to catch
 * really bad-designed code automatically.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Please use Suppression to avoid violations on cases that could not be split
 * in few methods without damaging readability of code or encapsulation.
 * </p>
 * <ul>

 * Property {@code max} - Specify the maximum threshold allowed.
