Unnecessarily escaped character
Reports unnecessarily escaped characters in String and optionally char literals.
The escaped tab character \t is not reported, because otherwise it will be invisible.
Examples:
String s = "\'Scare\' quotes";
String t = """
All you need is\n\tLove\n""";
After the quick-fix is applied:
String s = "'Scare' quotes";
String t = """
All you need is
\tLove
""";
