Error Prone 2.49.0

This release includes several changes to Matcher APIs, and removed some deprecated or problematic APIs:

• Remove deprecated MethodMatchers.withSignature API, which relies on fragile toString behaviour. Alternatives for matching on method signatures with varargs and type parameters were added in google/error-prone@a98a1c5.
• Removed variableType(Matcher) API. Matchers.variableType(Matcher) uses VariableTree#getType to match variable types, which own't work for lambda parameters with inferred types after JDK-8268850. The recommended replacement is variableType(TypePredicate).
• Make enclosingPackage return an optional. Module elements are not enclosed by a package, checks using enclosingPackage shouldn't assume an enclosing package exists when processing arbitrary elements.
• New FieldMatchers API, similar to MethodMatchers (google/error-prone@1dd9c3a).

New checks:

• AssertThrowsBlockToExpression: Discourage unnecessary block lambdas in assertThrows.
• AssertThrowsMinimizer: Suggest minimizing the amount of logic in assertThrows.
• MemorySegmentReferenceEquality: Discourage using reference equality for MemorySegments.
• PreferThrowsTag: Recommends using @throws instead of the legacy @exception javadoc tag.
• RecordAccessorInCompactConstructor: detect record accessors inside the compact canonical ctors, which read uninitialized fields.

Closed issues: #2283, #3503, #5210, #5289, #5548, #5548, #5554, #5609, #5614, #5656

Error Prone 2.46.0

Changes:

• The javac flag -XDaddTypeAnnotationsToSymbol=true is now required for Error Prone invocations on JDK 21, to enable the javac fix for JDK-8225377: type annotations are not visible to javac plugins across compilation boundaries. See google/error-prone#5426 for details.
• Remove deprecated value attribute from @IncompatibleModifiers and @RequiredModifiers (google/error-prone#2122)
