Programming exercises: Remove Java 16 specific Spotbugs Rule

[JohannesStoehr]

Checklist

General

• This is a small issue that I tested locally and was confirmed by another developer on a test server.
• I chose a title conforming to the naming conventions for pull requests.

Motivation and Context

#3092 updated programming exercises to Java 16, which introduced records. Spotbugs did not fully support them at the start, which had to be excluded by a specific rule. This was offered as a comment for instructors to include it as they needed if for potentially added records.
Since we now use Java 17 and Spotbugs was also updated long ago to support Records, this specific rule will no longer be used for records in our programming exercises.

Description

Remove unused comment for filter option for potential records in the students code.

Steps for Testing

No testing needed, since only a comment is affected.

Walkthrough

The recent update involves the removal of a specific exclusion rule from the SpotBugs configuration file. This rule previously disabled the equals check on Java 16 Record types. The change suggests an adaptation to either updated analysis tools or revised coding standards.

Tips

Chat

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

• Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
  • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>.
  • Generate unit testing code for this file.
  • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
• Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
  • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
• PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai generate interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table.
  • @coderabbitai show all the console.log statements in this repository.
  • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
  • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.
