Statement lambda can be replaced with expression lambda

Reports lambda expressions with code block bodies when expression-style bodies can be used instead. The result of the conversion is shorter and more clear.

Example:

Comparable<String> c = o -> {return 0;};

After the quick-fix is applied:

Comparable<String> c = o -> 0;
