Array comparison using '==', instead of 'Arrays.equals()'

Reports operators == and != used to test for array equality. In most cases, testing for the equality of array contents is intended, which can be done with the java.util.Arrays.equals() method.

A quick-fix is suggested to replace == with java.util.Arrays.equals().

Example:

void foo(Object[] x, Object[] y) {
  boolean comparison = x == y;
}

After the quick-fix is applied:

void foo(Object[] x, Object[] y) {
  boolean comparison = Arrays.equals(x, y);
}
