Description
When I checked out the latest code with CASSANDRA-18805 in, I noticed that it pulls these dependencies:

Notice there is checker-qual and error_prone_annotations
If you do this on the current cassandra-5.0:
find . -type f -name '*.java' | xargs grep 'import .*\.Nullable;' | cut -d ':' -f2 | sort | uniq
you will get
import org.checkerframework.checker.nullness.qual.Nullable; import javax.annotation.Nullable;
The first import is wrong. We should not use that, we should use just javax.annotation.Nullable.
The reason why it is possible to use that import is that it is on the classpath. Even worse, it is also added into libs which is not necessary at all.
error_prone_annotations are compile-time annotations and checker-qual are too. We do not need them in Cassandra at all. They are dependencies which are brought there from caffeine.
