Java Maven Projects containing other nested Java Maven Projects not being recognized as Java Projects in 1.17

Description

I admit that our project structure is not standard, but it's how we've been working for many years. We have a java (war) project that contains many Java (jar) projects in a folder structure similar to the one below.

**root_java_project**
|-> pom.xml
|-> src
|-> **child_java_project_1**
      |-> pom.xml
      |-> src
|-> **child_java_project_2**
      |-> pom.xml
      |-> src
...
|-> child_java_project_n
      |-> pom.xml
      |-> src

Several on our team recently experienced this issue when we updated to Java Extension Pack to 1.17. It immediately ceased recognizing our ROOT project as being a legit java project. The child projects were fine. (note that the project hierarchy is only one level deep -- a root and it's children). Reverting back to 1.16 or earlier made the issue disappear.

Environment

• Operating System: Mac OS Ventura 13.13.1
• JDK version: 17 and 16
• Visual Studio Code version: 1.77.3
• Java extension version: 1.17

Steps To Reproduce

1. Assume folder structure as shown above.
2. Open an empty workspace
3. click Add folder to workspace and select child_java_project_1
4. project is added to workspace and it's recognized as a java project
5. repeat for child_java_project_2 ... child_java_project_n
6. all projects are recognized as java projects with full linking, debugging, etc, support.
7. finally repeat for root_java_project. It shows up in the "Java Projects" but it doesn't recognize that there's a pom in that root folder and consequently doesn't capture it as being a legit java project.
8. Revert back to 1.15 or 1.16 and it works.

I do see quite of few Stack Overflows in the Language Server Log file. Not sure if that's the cause.

Additional Informations

首先复现 issue 中描述的嵌套 pom.xml 工作区结构，然后检查随附的 VS Code Language Server Log 和 VSCode Client Logs，以查找报告的 Stack Overflows。当根 Java 项目能够连同其 pom.xml 一起被识别，并且现有的子项目支持在 Java extension 1.17 中仍能正常工作时，即视为完成。
