This PR, when it has all its change sets, will restructure the Jython 3 code into a Java module core. The objective is to control visibility of objects that will become API, while allowing us to use package structure internally to the project. (Without Java modularity, everything we make public for re-use between packages internally, becomes public externally.)

It is intended that there be more than one module eventually, but always a small number.

We are applying some off-repo learning (in VSJ4). The first step (adding module definitions) does not achieve the objective: public classes must be allocated to packages that are either exported or not, and in some cases a class must be divided between them. The off-repo work also advanced the functional state of the implementation so we shall bring that in too.

This gets quite difficult so the PR will be draft for a while.
