Research direction

Start with JavaRecordComponent and the existing JavaClass.reflect() method, which is the pattern to copy. Check how the project handles Java 16+ APIs, since the issue flags this as a breaking change and the build's target version matters. Done when JavaRecordComponent has a reflect() method returning java.lang.reflect.RecordComponent, with a test that covers it.

Description

Similar to JavaClass.reflect(), JavaRecordComponent should also have a reflect() method returning a java.lang.reflect.RecordComponent.
