What happened?

For cases like the following code the Jimple generation is wrong, as it tries removes the conditional expression and just appends "c" to the string:

void method (boolean condition) {
    String s = "a" + (condition ? "b" : "c")
}

This only happen for code compiled with JDK 8 or earlier. It will probably also happen for other conditional expressions.

Please see https://github.com/soot-oss/SootUp/tree/fix/conditionalStringConcat for a test case.
