In its current form the presence of `--classpath` (or its equivalent arguments) was unnecessary updating the mode to `LM_CLASS`. The commit in this PR removes that part to allow for the mode to be detected based merely on the presence (or absence) of `-m`, `-jar`, `--source` options. If neither is specified, the file extension is checked to determine the launch mode.
