Replace th:utext with th:text in Thymeleaf templates

Recipe IDorg.openrewrite.java.security.xss.ReplaceThymeleafUnescapedArtifactorg.openrewrite.recipe:rewrite-java-security

Replaces Thymeleaf's unescaped attribute th:utext (and data-th-utext) with its escaped equivalent th:text (data-th-text) in .html / .htm template files. th:utext interpolates raw HTML and is the canonical Thymeleaf XSS sink. The recipe only fires on files that look like Thymeleaf templates (declare the xmlns:th namespace or use a th: / data-th- attribute somewhere). If you have a legitimate raw-HTML interpolation, restore it manually and rely on Thymeleaf's [# th:utext] block syntax or a sanitized model attribute.
