RFR: 8282274: Compiler implementation for Pattern Matching for switch (Third Preview) [v10]

[Jan Lahoda]

> This is a (preliminary) patch for javac implementation for the third preview of pattern matching for switch (type patterns in switches).
> 
> Draft JLS:
> http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~gbierman/PatternSwitchPlusRecordPatterns/PatternSwitchPlusRecordPatterns-20220407/specs/patterns-switch-jls.html
> 
> The changes are:
> -there are no guarded patterns anymore, guards are not bound to the CaseElement (JLS 15.28)
> -a new contextual keyword `when` is used to add a guard, instead of `&&`
> -`null` selector value is handled on switch level (if a switch has `case null`, it is used, otherwise a NPE is thrown), rather than on pattern matching level.
> -total patterns are allowed in `instanceof`
> -`java.lang.MatchException` is added for the case where a switch is exhaustive (due to sealed types) at compile-time, but not at runtime.
> 
> Feedback is welcome!
> 
> Thanks!
