PS I suspect that this can't be optional due to the fact that kotlin discovery code path is invoked every time, even in non kotlin environments?

In Spring Data Common it's optional, I think because we first invoke KotlinReflectionUtils. isSupportedKotlinClass from Spring, which - I think - doesn't rely on kotkin-reflect itself.

Fixes #11
In #37, I added support for Kotlin classes by using
PreferredConstructorDiscovererfrom Spring Data Common.However, Spring prefers no-argument constructors over other constructors, which doesn't seem to be compatible with QueryDSL. Therefore, the original implementation preferred the constructor with the most parameters instead.
To be compatible with both QueryDSL and Kotlin data classes, I made a custom
PreferredConstructorDiscovererwhich is inspired by the way Spring Data Common supports Kotlin, but still uses the custom logic that was implemented before.
