feat: Demonstrate upcasting and downcasting with method overriding in Java

This commit introduces a Java program that clearly explains the concepts of:
- Upcasting (automatic)
- Downcasting (manual and type-checked)
- Method overriding
- `instanceof` check for safe casting

Key elements:
- Defined a base class `Animal` with a field `name` and a method `makenoise()`
- Created a subclass `Dog` that overrides `makenoise()` and adds a new method `growl()`
- In the `main` method:
  - Upcasting: `Animal myAnimal = new Dog();` – a `Dog` object is referenced as its superclass type
  - Demonstrated dynamic method dispatch: `myAnimal.makenoise()` calls the overridden method in `Dog`
  - Explained unsafe downcasting: casting `new Animal()` to `Dog` results in `ClassCastException`
  - Used `instanceof` to safely downcast only when the object is actually an instance of `Dog`
  - Invoked the `growl()` method after safe downcasting

This example emphasizes best practices when working with polymorphism and casting in Java,
ensuring both flexibility (via upcasting) and safety (via `instanceof`) during object manipulation.
