Find hardcoded authentication credentials

Recipe IDorg.openrewrite.java.security.search.FindHardcodedAuthenticationCredentials
Artifactorg.openrewrite.recipe:rewrite-java-security

Finds hardcoded passwords flowing into Spring Security user builders: InMemoryUserDetailsManagerConfigurer (inMemoryAuthentication().withUser(...).password(...)) and the User.UserBuilder.password(...) API. Uses taint analysis so credentials assigned to a variable, field, or constant before being passed to .password(...) are also detected.
