Package error not reported with "java.jdt.ls.javac.enabled":"on" #4414

Describe the bug
When using "java.jdt.ls.javac.enabled":"on" on a unmanaged project, if the package does not match the folder hierarchy, no error is reported in VSCode interface

To Reproduce

  1. Unzip Demo25-javac-on.zip
  2. Open folder ... Demo25-javac-on
  3. Open file foo\bar\ex02.java -> The package is incorrect (bar instead of foo.bar) but no error is reported
  4. File ex01.java has the correct package
  5. File ex03.java has no package (compact source file)

Expected behavior
A package error should be reported for ex02.java and ex03.java . In fact, the class file are not placed in the correct folders in the workspace cache folder (see left side of the picture below). When javac is on, the class are placed in folders according to the package declared in the java file instead of the original folder hierarchy. So since the class file matches the package, no package error is reported. The correct behavior is to keep the class files in the same folders of the source java files like when javac is off (right side of picture below)

Maybe it is a problem in the JDT-LS from Eclipse?
