/**
 * <div>
 * Checks that a given switch statement or expression that use a reference type in its selector
 * expression has a {@code null} case label.
 * </div>
 *
 * <p>
 * Rationale: switch statements and expressions in Java throw a
 * {@code NullPointerException} if the selector expression evaluates to {@code null}.
 * As of Java 21, it is now possible to integrate a null check within the switch,
 * eliminating the risk of {@code NullPointerException} and simplifies the code
 * as there is no need for an external null check before entering the switch.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * See the <a href="https://docs.oracle.com/javase/specs/jls/se22/html/jls-15.html#jls-15.28">
 * Java Language Specification</a> for more information about switch statements and expressions.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * Specifically, this check validates switch statement or expression
 * that use patterns or strings in their case labels.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * Due to Checkstyle not being type-aware, this check cannot validate other reference types,
 * such as enums; syntactically, these are no different from other constants.
 * </p>
 *
 * <p>
 * <b>Attention</b>: this Check should be activated only on source code
 * that is compiled by jdk21 or above.
 * </p>
 *
 * @since 10.18.0
