Description
JdtQueuedBuildData.needsRebuild(IProject, Collection) bogus behaviour:

Research direction
Start at JdtQueuedBuildData.needsRebuild(IProject, Collection) and reproduce the reported setup: a pure Java project A and an Xtext-plus-Java project B that depends on A. Verify whether editing a file in A incorrectly makes B report that it needs rebuilding. Done means the method no longer reports a rebuild for this non-Xtext change while preserving the expected behavior for Xtext-related changes.
