`GraalVmProcessor` currently emits canonical type names (JLS §6.7) for parameter types in the GraalVM reachability metadata. However, testing shows that GraalVM expects **binary names** (JLS §13.1) for reference types. For example: * Canonical: `org.apache.logging.log4j.core.Filter.Result` * Required (binary): `org.apache.logging.log4j.core.Filter$Result` For array types, GraalVM accepts two forms: * The JVM descriptor form: `[L<component_type>;` * The Java-like form: `<component_type>[]` This PR updates the processor to use binary names and emits the simpler Java-like syntax for arrays.
