`Remove catch for a checked exception if the try block does not throw that exception` removes exception thrown by close in try-with-resources on `XsltTransformationVisitor`

[timtebeek]

Problem

Exception is removed when it is thrown by a try-with-resources close method in our very own code base:
https://github.com/openrewrite/rewrite/blob/0fb707186f69d4cd4518388f7180126385f7a14c/rewrite-xml/src/main/java/org/openrewrite/xml/XsltTransformationVisitor.java#L85-L98

Expected behavior

No change made at all, either because we correctly detect the throw in the try-with-resources close(), or because we do not make any changes for try-with-resources out of caution.

    }
-        } catch (IOException | TransformerException e) {
+        } catch (TransformerException e) {
    throw new RuntimeException("XSLT transformation exception: " + e.getMessage(), e);
}
}

              transformer.transform(text, new StreamResult(baos));
        return Xml.Tag.build(baos.toString());
    }

Weirdly we have a matching unit test already; we have the latest version deployed already; yet I can't replicate the above in a unit test yet.
