`InnerClassesAttribute` is a preview API of the Java platform.
Programs can only use `InnerClassesAttribute` when preview features are enabled.
Preview features may be removed in a future release, or upgraded to permanent features of the Java platform.
Models the `InnerClasses` attribute 4.7.6, which can appear on classes, and records which classes referenced by this classfile are inner classes. Delivered as a `ClassElement`PREVIEW when traversing the elements of a `ClassModel`PREVIEW.

The attribute does not permit multiple instances in a given location. Subsequent occurrence of the attribute takes precedence during the attributed element build or transformation.
