Add readable compiler error when trying to inject generics

See original GitHub issue

I’m getting an IllegalArgumentException for my Android Kotlin project.

Unfortunately there’s no error message or warning from the Dagger annotation processor.

I’ve tried to find out the cause of the error looking at Daggers source but couldn’t quite find an issue. Seems like there’s an invalid members injection key, even though I don’t know what that means:

Android prevents the use of constructor injection on Activities, Fragments, Services, etc, which is why we have the dagger.android APIs. If you’re not on Android, regular construction injection is prefered.

Take a look at google.github.io/dagger/android. It may have all of what you want.
