Description
I also wanted to precise the following migration notes :
The shorthand method _(String className) to load a class in Groovy templates has been removed since the underscore is now a reserved keyword in JDK9 and later versions. Please use the method __loadClass(String className) instead

Research direction
No documentation file or test is named in the issue. First locate the migration notes covering Groovy templates, then verify the wording against the stated change from _(String className) to __loadClass(String className). Done means the migration note clearly explains the JDK 9 underscore restriction and replacement method.
