Maven projects not loading in VS Code after latest Language Support for Java by Red Hat Extension Update (v1.42.0)

After updating the Language Support for Java(TM) by Red Hat extension to version 1.42.0 (2025-05-19), my Maven Java projects no longer load properly in Visual Studio Code. The Java Language Server fails to resolve standard Java classes (e.g., java.lang.Object), and the Maven projects are not recognized or built correctly.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Open a multi-module Maven Java project in VS Code.
2. Ensure the latest Language Support for Java(TM) by Red Hat extension (v1.42.0) is installed.
3. Set the JDK in VS Code settings (settings.json) to JDK 8, 11, or 21 (tried all):
   "java.jdt.ls.java.home": "valid\path\to\jdk"
4. Reload VS Code.
5. Observe that Maven projects are not loaded, and Java standard library classes cannot be resolved.

Error Logs

1. The type java.lang.Object cannot be resolved. It is indirectly referenced from required .class files
2. Unbound classpath container: 'JRE System Library [java-21-openjdk]' in project ...

Environment (please complete the following information):

• OS: Windows 10/11
• VS Code version: [1.100.2]
• Language Support for Java(TM) by Red Hat extension version: 1.42.0
• JDK versions tried: 8, 11, 21 (paths set correctly in settings)
• Maven version: [3.6.0]

Additional context

• The issue started after updating to extension v1.42.0.
• The same project setup worked with previous extension versions.
• Tried cleaning workspace, deleting .classpath/.settings, and reinstalling the extension, but the issue persists.

Steps already tried

• Changed JDK versions and updated settings.json
• Set JAVA_HOME and updated PATH
• Cleaned and rebuilt Maven projects
• Reinstalled Java extensions
• Restarted VS Code and the system

Tái hiện với dự án Maven đa mô-đun, VS Code 1.100.2, extension 1.42.0 và các thiết lập JDK trong settings.json; bắt đầu với các lỗi của Java Language Server và các tệp .classpath/.settings của dự án. Được xem là hoàn tất khi các dự án Maven tải đúng cách và các lớp tiêu chuẩn như java.lang.Object được phân giải mà không có unbound JRE System Library.
