Description

Proposal from https://github.com/eclipse-jdt/eclipse.jdt.core/pull/2551

Raise a **build path error** with the same message as `IProblem.JavaVersionNotSupported`, so that users will find the blocking error on the project itself, not just on one random compilation unit.

Currently the first file we compile with not supported Java version is flagged with an error, not the project.
