Description
This LSP implementation addresses many issues that are common to LSP servers implemented on Java and Eclipse. For instance, finding a JRE/JDK to run with, launching the Eclipse-based server etc.
It would be great if this was extracted into its own package or somehow exposed so other Eclipse/Java-based LSP servers (for other languages) could reuse it.

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by locating the existing Java/Eclipse-based LSP server launch and JRE/JDK discovery implementation, then determine how it could be extracted or exposed for reuse. Done means other Java- or Eclipse-based language servers can reuse this functionality through a package or public interface.
