SymbolInformation returned not accurate for annotation search

Issue

I'm working a PR to add more tests to this project and when I execute the following query for an annotation, I got a response which is not fully correct.

Here is the class parsed: https://github.com/snowdrop/migration-tool/blob/main/applications/spring-boot-todo-app/src/main/java/com/todo/app/controller/TaskController.java#L77
and code

    @PostMapping("/home")
    @ResponseBody
    public ResponseEntity<List<Task>> createTask(@RequestBody Task task) {
        taskService.addTask(task);
        List<Task> tasks = taskService.getAllTasks();
        return ResponseEntity.ok(tasks);
    }

The search engine is returning as Symbol the first annotation @PostMapping and not the 2nd @ResponseBody.

Query: org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.ResponseBody, location: 4
