… one When an element carries two nullability annotations that both migrate to the same JSpecify annotation -- such as `javax.annotation.Nullable` together with `javax.annotation.CheckForNull`, or annotations from two different frameworks -- the `ChangeType` steps each rewrite their own annotation, leaving the element annotated twice. Add a `RemoveDuplicateAnnotations` recipe that drops repeated annotations of the same type, and run it at the end of each `MigrateFrom*` recipe. Fixes #1199
The recipe is not specific to JSpecify: any many-to-one `ChangeType` mapping can leave an element annotated twice. It now lives in rewrite-static-analysis, next to `RemoveDuplicateConditions`, with an optional `annotationType` defaulting to any annotation and a guard for `@Repeatable` annotations.

Moved the recipe out to rewrite-static-analysis: openrewrite/rewrite-static-analysis#1000. It is not JSpecify-specific — any many-to-one Marked as draft: this PR is now just the six |

When an element carries two nullability annotations that both migrate to the same JSpecify annotation, each
ChangeTypestep rewrites its own annotation and the element ends up annotated twice:migrated to
@Nullable @Nullable String baz(fully qualified on the second one whenever the simple name could not be shortened, matching the output in the issue).This adds a
RemoveDuplicateAnnotationsrecipe that drops annotations repeated on the same element -- leading annotations on classes, methods and variables, annotations attached to modifiers, and type-use annotations on array types, nested types and type arguments -- keeping the first occurrence. It is run at the end of eachMigrateFrom*recipe, so it also covers duplicates that only appear once two differentMigrateFrom*recipes have both run.Only annotations that are semantically equal to an earlier one are removed, so distinct annotations such as
@Nullable @NonNullare left alone.
