Replace String concatenation with String.valueOf()

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

Replace inefficient string concatenation patterns like "" + ... with String.valueOf(...). This improves code readability and may have minor performance benefits. The empty string prefix "" + is an indirect way to convert a value to a String, while String.valueOf() clearly communicates the conversion intent.
