Chain StringBuilder.append() calls

Recipe IDorg.openrewrite.staticanalysis.ChainStringBuilderAppendCalls
Artifactorg.openrewrite.recipe:rewrite-static-analysis

String concatenation within calls to StringBuilder.append() causes unnecessary memory allocation. Except for concatenations of String literals, which are joined together at compile time. Replaces inefficient concatenations with chained calls to StringBuilder.append(). Using + inside append() defeats the purpose of the StringBuilder, since the concatenation creates a temporary String before appending.
