Title: AnnotationAwareOrderComparator now exposes INSTANCE constant.

The INSTANCE constant you could refer to on
AnnotationAwareOrderComparator actually referred to the constant declared
in OrderAwareComparator. Thus AnnotationAwareOrderComparator.INSTANCE
did not actually return an AnnotationAwareOrderComparator but an
OrderAwareComparator only. This commit introduces a dedicated constant
on AnnotationAwareOrderComparator to avoid this glitch.
