Support non-canonical static type imports The JLS permits static type imports to refer to types using non-canonical names, e.g. `java.util.Map.Entry` can be resolved from either of these imports: import static java.util.HashMap.Entry; import static java.util.HashMap.*; Historically this feature has not been well-supported by javac [1][2][3][4], it is bad style [5][6], and a vanishingly small amount of real world code uses it. Nevertherless, it's in the spec.
