Research direction

Start with the UnmappedTargetPropertiesInspection and review how it determines ignored target properties. Read the linked MapStruct issue about the @Ignored annotation for the intended behavior. Done means fields written in @Ignored no longer produce false unmapped-property warnings.

Description

enhancement

With MapStruct 1.7.0 it is possible to provide ignored arguments with the new annotation @Ignored:

The UnmappedTargetPropertiesInspection needs to consider them, else we would get false warnings.

This can already be implemented before 1.7.0 is released.
