Provide an option / a variable to configure `allowInlineReturn` on `JavadocMethod`

See https://checkstyle.sourceforge.io/checks/javadoc/javadocmethod.html#JavadocMethod

I would like to be able to use inline return comments with Spring Java Format:

public class Example8 {

  /**
   * {@return the foo}
   */
  public int getFoo() { return 0; }

  /**
   * Returns the bar
   * @return the bar
   */
  public int getBar() { return 0; }

}

I can overwrite that setting, as the the spring-check style.xml has precedence.

I think you may be able to exclude com.puppycrawl.tools.checkstyle.checks.javadoc.JavadocMethodCheck when importing SpringChecks and then declare JavadocMethodCheck again with your desired configuration.

Thank you, this works.
I assumed one can only exclude spring checks.
