Research direction

Start by locating the implementation of java.codeGeneration.insertionLocation in the VS Code Java extension. Determine how constructor and getter/setter generation currently use that setting, then make their insertion locations independently configurable so constructors can be placed at the top and getters/setters at lastMember; add or update relevant tests if present.
