Research direction

Reproduce the issue with spring-petclinic, selecting Maven when vscode-java reports the build tool conflict, then run Java: Import Java Projects into Workspace. Trace the import and conflict-choice handling; done means the selected Maven choice is respected and the project no longer appears as a Gradle or Buildship-style project.
