This is an implementation of a change for JEP draft: Implicitly Declared Classes and Instance Main Methods (Third Preview)[1]. The primary change here is that implicitly declared classes have two new implicit imports:

import module java.base;
import static java.io.SimpleIO.*;


Both of these depend on other changes, the first one on https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/18614, and the second one on https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8305457. This PR depends on 18614, and the patch here can should be able to work both in the presence and absence of `java.io.SimpleIO`, including testing. Some tweaking may still be necessary when `java.io.SimpleIO` is introduced. But, overall the patch should be fairly straightforward - the imports are injected at the same time the long-existing import for `java.lang` is added.

There is also an obvious relation to String Templates, which may need tweaking/simplification.

Additional tweak will be needed once the JEP is Candidate, to updated the proper JEP number.
