Remove duplicate annotations

Recipe IDorg.openrewrite.staticanalysis.RemoveDuplicateAnnotationsArtifactorg.openrewrite.recipe:rewrite-static-analysis

Remove annotations that are repeated on the same element, keeping only the first occurrence. Duplicates typically arise when several distinct annotations are migrated to a single new annotation, such as when both javax.annotation.Nullable and javax.annotation.CheckForNull become org.jspecify.annotations.Nullable. @Repeatable annotations are left alone, as repeating those is meaningful.
