Adding a parameter using the change method signature refactoring may enable an overloading and changes program behavior.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create the classes
public class A {
  public long k() {
    return 1;
  }
  public long k(long a) {
    return 2;
  }
  public long test() {
    return new A().k(2);
  }
}
2. Apply the Change Method Signature to add a Int parameter to k()
public class A {
  public long k(int a) {
    return 1;
  }
  public long k(long a) {
    return 2;
  }
  public long test() {
    return new A().k(2);
  }
}
3. The transformation changes behavior. After the refactoring, the test method returns 1 instead of 2.
