@SafeVarargs do not suppress potentially unsafe operations

Reports write operations inside @SafeVarargs methods where vararg parameter is reassigned to something else. In this case, newly assigned array is not related to the variable arity arguments at the call site and might not be safe anymore.

Example:

@SafeVarargs public final <T> void test(T[] tt, T... t) { t = tt; System.out.println(t[0]); }
