Replace java.util.Vector with java.util.ArrayList

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

Vector synchronizes every operation, which adds overhead in the common single-threaded case. This recipe replaces a local Vector with an ArrayList when data flow analysis can prove the Vector never escapes its method (it is not returned, assigned to a field, or passed as an argument), so no other thread can observe it and the synchronization is redundant. Fields, escaping variables, Vector-specific method usages (like elementAt or addElement), and the Vector(int, int) constructor are left untouched.
