[jdk17] RFR: 8268320: Better error recovery for broken patterns in switch

[Jan Lahoda]

[a copy of https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/4441 for JDK 17]

Trying to improve error recovery in case the user wanted to use a type-pattern in the switch construct, but didn't put a binding variable name after the type name. E.g.:

$ cat test/langtools/tools/javac/diags/examples/PatternExpected.java
[snip]
class PatternSwitch {
    private void doSwitch(Object o) {
        switch (o) {
            case String: break;
            default: break;
        }
    }
}
$ javac --enable-preview -source 17  test/langtools/tools/javac/diags/examples/PatternExpected.java
test/langtools/tools/javac/diags/examples/PatternExpected.java:32: error: type pattern expected
            case String: break;
                 ^
Note: test/langtools/tools/javac/diags/examples/PatternExpected.java uses preview features of Java SE 17.
Note: Recompile with -Xlint:preview for details.
