Fix String#format and String#formatted expressions

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

Fix String#format and String#formatted expressions by replacing \n newline characters with %n and removing any unused arguments. Note this recipe is scoped to only transform format expressions which do not specify the argument index. Using %n ensures the correct platform-specific line separator, and removing unused arguments eliminates dead code that may mask a mismatch between the format string and its parameters.
