Find empty catch blocks

Recipe IDorg.openrewrite.kotlin.functional.FindTryCatchSwallowingException$KtRecipe
Artifactio.moderne.recipe:recipes-kotlin

An empty catch (catch (e: Exception) { }) eats every exception and produces no record of it ever happening. Even a logger call records that something went wrong; an empty block makes the failure undebuggable.
