Duplicate branches in 'switch'

Reports switch statements or expressions that contain the same code in different branches and suggests merging the duplicate branches.

Example:

switch (n) { case 1: System.out.println(n); break; case 2: System.out.println(n); break; default: System.out.println("default"); }

After the quick-fix is applied:

switch (n) { case 1: case 2: System.out.println(n); break; default: System.out.println("default"); }
