Research direction
Use invisible-project.zip to reproduce on Windows with JDK 8, switch to JDK 12, and reopen the project in VS Code. Start by tracing the Java language server workspace state around the failed compilation; done means the project compiles after the JDK change without cleaning the workspace.
