Description

Similar to the Java tooling in VSCode, we should ask users to automatically enable annotation based null analysis for their projects on project import in case the project contains JSpecify on the classpath.

Research direction

Start by locating the existing Java tooling behavior in VS Code for enabling annotation-based null analysis during project import. Then trace project-import handling and JSpecify classpath detection; done means an imported project containing JSpecify prompts the user to enable null analysis, with behavior verified against the comparable Java tooling flow.
