[Java] Coverage not collected for some manifest jars

[ckilian867]

Description of the bug:

When the classpath of a test is over the CLASSPATH_LIMIT, Bazel will create a manifest jar that contains a manifest with an entry of the classpath.

The JacocoCoverageRunner accounts for this and will undo the process to find the classpath during coverage collection. However, one of the checks (urls.length == 1) assumes that the manifest jar is the only jar on the classpath.

If a test has a jar in its data, it can also be added to the classpath after the manifest jar. Since the length of the array is greater than 1, the logic is skipped and the coverage collection file is empty.

We were able to resolve this by adding a patch to our fork, but the solution depends on the naming convention of the manifest jar from the stub template and also the ordering of the classpath, which may not be the most robust/futureproof solution. I wanted to raise this issue in case Bazel team had a better way to resolve it.

An idea from the sidelines: Since the stub script knows best whether it created a manifest jar, it could pass along its path as an environment variable or Java system property.
