Covariant equals

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

Checks that classes and records which define a covariant equals() method also override method equals(Object). Covariant equals() means a method that is similar to equals(Object), but with a covariant parameter type (any subtype of Object). Without a proper equals(Object) override, collections and other framework code that rely on the standard signature will silently use Object.equals, leading to incorrect behavior.
