HashMap constructor usage

[Nikolay Rychkov]

All parameters of HashMap constructor are defaulted. I would like to create HashMap like this:

Map<String, String> = HashMap({"key" -> "value"})

Unfortunately, I got an error "Argument must be assignable to parameter stability of HashMap: {<String->String>+} is not assignable to Stability"

I.e. compiler is not able to recognize that I want to use just third argument. 

How to avoid this behaviour? What is a general rule of recognizing defaulted arguments?

Using `()` for the invocation means positional invocation. Used "named parameter" invocations with `{}` as such:

Map<String, String> = HashMap{"key" -> "value"}
