Description
This is a followup issue on [Bugzilla Bug #533401 - Provide support in UI to create multi release JAR](https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=533401).
Please add support for creating JEP 238: Multi-Release JAR Files in the Eclipse JDT UI.
The Eclipse Compiler itself already supports it since 2018.
Ultimately I am looking for M2E support of MRJARs in projects outlined like this https://github.com/apache/maven-compiler-plugin/tree/master/src/it/multirelease-patterns/singleproject-runtime. But I guess this first requires JDT UI support.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reviewing Bugzilla #533401 and the Eclipse JDT UI flow for creating JARs, then compare the Maven Compiler Plugin multi-release patterns example. Confirm how the existing compiler support could connect to JDT UI and eventual M2E support. Done means the UI can create a JEP 238 multi-release JAR for the described project layout.
