Don't specify @Key annotation value if JSON key matches field name

[GoogleCodeExporter]

External references, such as a standards document, or specification?

N/A

Java environments (e.g. Java 6, Android 2.3, App Engine 1.4.2, or All)?

All

Please describe the feature requested.

We should investigate the impact on the compiled Java class files on the fact 
that currently the generated libraries specify the @Key annotation value, for 
example:

public final class Activity extends GenericJson {
  @Key("id")
  public String id;
}

Most of the time the field name matches the JSON key name, so it is unnecessary.

I tried this with the Tasks API.  It reduced the compiled jar size by 100 bytes 
on a 33.4KB jar.  So the impact is very small.
