Descrição
**Description of the false positive**
The query `java/implicit-cast-in-compound-assignment` incorrectly flags compound statements with numeric literals within the value range of the target type. E.g.:
```
byte b = 1;
b *= 10; // Incorrectly flagged even though it is safe
```
Side note: Literals which exceed the value range should probably be even flagged as error (instead of warning):
```
byte b = 1;
b += 0xFF; // Exceeds 127, but is still in unsigned value range, might be intended: Ok
b += 256; // Very likely not intended: Error
```
Also why doesn't `java/implicit-cast-in-compound-assignment` cover all (arithmetic) compound assignments instead of only addition and multiplication?
