Mathieu Fenniak f93d2cb261 ci: detect and prevent empty case statements in Go code (#11593)
One of the security patches released 2026-03-09 [fixed a vulnerability](d1c7b04d09) caused by a misapplication of Go `case` statements, where the implementation would have been correct if Go `case` statements automatically fall through to the next case block, but they do not.  This PR adds a semgrep rule which detects any empty `case` statement and raises an error, in order to prevent this coding mistake in the future.

For example, code like this will now trigger a build error:
```go
	switch setting.Protocol {
	case setting.HTTPUnix:
	case setting.FCGI:
	case setting.FCGIUnix:
	default:
		defaultLocalURL := string(setting.Protocol) + "://"
	}
```

Example error:
```
    cmd/web.go
   ❯❯❱ semgrep.config.forgejo-switch-empty-case
          switch has a case block with no content. This is treated as "break" by Go, but developers may
          confuse it for "fallthrough".  To fix this error, disambiguate by using "break" or
          "fallthrough".

          279┆ switch setting.Protocol {
          280┆ case setting.HTTPUnix:
          281┆ case setting.FCGI:
          282┆ case setting.FCGIUnix:
          283┆ default:
          284┆   defaultLocalURL := string(setting.Protocol) + "://"
          285┆   if setting.HTTPAddr == "0.0.0.0" {
          286┆           defaultLocalURL += "localhost"
          287┆   } else {
          288┆           defaultLocalURL += setting.HTTPAddr
```

As described in the error output, this error can be fixed by explicitly listing `break` (the real Go behaviour, to do nothing in the block), or by listing `fallthrough` (if the intent was to fall through).

All existing code triggering this detection has been changed to `break` (or, rarely, irrelevant cases have been removed), which should maintain the same code functionality.  While performing this fixup, a light analysis was performed on each case and they *appeared* correct, but with ~65 cases I haven't gone into extreme depth.

Tests are present for the semgrep rule in `.semgrep/tests/go.go`.

Welcome to Forgejo

Hi there! Tired of big platforms playing monopoly? Providing Git hosting for your project, friends, company or community? Forgejo (/for'd͡ʒe.jo/ inspired by forĝejo the Esperanto word for forge) has you covered with its intuitive interface, light and easy hosting and a lot of built-in functionality.

Forgejo was created in 2022 because we think that the project should be owned by an independent community. If you second that, then Forgejo is for you! Our promise: Independent Free/Libre Software forever!

What does Forgejo offer?

If you like any of the following, Forgejo is literally meant for you:

  • Lightweight: Forgejo can easily be hosted on nearly every machine. Running on a Raspberry? Small cloud instance? No problem!
  • Project management: Besides Git hosting, Forgejo offers issues, pull requests, wikis, kanban boards and much more to coordinate with your team.
  • Publishing: Have something to share? Use releases to host your software for download, or use the package registry to publish it for docker, npm and many other package managers.
  • Customizable: Want to change your look? Change some settings? There are many config switches to make Forgejo work exactly like you want.
  • Powerful: Organizations & team permissions, CI integration, Code Search, LDAP, OAuth and much more. If you have advanced needs, Forgejo has you covered.
  • Privacy: From update checker to default settings: Forgejo is built to be privacy first for you and your crew.
  • Federation: (WIP) We are actively working to connect software forges with each other through ActivityPub, and create a collaborative network of personal instances.
