Nice changes! Remarks
1. The `INSTANCE` fields should be declared `final`, still safe for lazy 
initialization.
2. Not from this patch, but the `AttributeStability stability()` overrides can 
be moved to `AbstractAttributeMapper`, stored in a field, to decrease source 
code size.
3. `AbstractAttributeMapper` might become sealed now that its implementations 
are no longer anonymous, might move it to be a private nested class of 
`Attributes` to omit the long list of permits.
