Explicit initialization

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

Checks if any class or object member is explicitly initialized to default for its type value: - null for object references - zero for numeric types and char - and false for boolean Removes explicit initializations where they aren't necessary. Since the JVM already guarantees these defaults, restating them adds visual noise and can obscure fields that are intentionally initialized to non-default values.
