Description

This is likely a large task.  We should probably separate it out into subtasks:

1.  Add checker framework so it is incorporated but does not fail the build.

2.  Cleanup issues it finds (likely by module)

3.  Enable full checking.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the Java build configuration and the three proposed subtasks in the issue. First determine how to incorporate the checker framework without failing the build, then track cleanup by module before enabling full null analysis. Done means the Java build completes cleanly with full checking enabled.
