feat: remove `total` and `startIndex`
Feature
Summary
This MR removes the fields total and startIndex from the AnnotationAPI. The reasons for this decision are:
- Both keys are not mandatory according to the W3C Data Annotation Model
- They aren't used in any of our application
- Depending on the size of the collection they are quite costly to compute
Although we now this might result in some drawbacks when using the annotations in another application outside the SUB (there is no use case for this scenario yet), we decided to opt for a better performance.
