Description

This could provide a noArgs constructor which called the Map-based constructor with an empty Map, e.g.:

@MapConstructor(noArg=true)
class Foo { ... }

would in addition to the Map-based constructor, also provide this:

Foo() { this([:]) }

This is currently part of what @Immutable provides.
