    Description

      Summary

      Add a convenience predicate to javax.lang.model.util.Elements to test for automatic modules.

      Problem

      No API in javax.lang.model to determine of a module is automatic or not.

      Solution

      Add a method providing the functionality in question.

      Specification

      New method added to javax.lang.model.util.Elements:

      /**
 * {@return {@code true} if the module element is an automatic
 * module, {@code false} otherwise}
 *
 * @implSpec
 * The default implementation of this method returns {@code
 * false}.
 *
 * @param module the module element being examined
 * @jls 7.7.1 Dependences
 * @since 17
 */
default boolean isAutomaticModule(ModuleElement module)
