Description

While Code runner runs java code which has default package, it fails to run if package is specified. What is needed is relative path of the .class file from {$workspaceRoot}, i.e, even if we select the file, it should switch to workspaceRoot as cwd and then issue java org.name.class

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how Code Runner constructs the Java execution command. Trace the code path when a Java file is selected and identify where the working directory and classpath are set. Then implement the logic to change to workspaceRoot and use the relative path of the .class file.
