When parsing Java classes with just a class name (without method signature), JBMC was incorrectly using
resolve_friendly_method_namewhich could report 'main method is ambiguous' errors. This fix checks ifconfig.maincontains a method signature (has a colon) and handles simple class names separately by looking for the standard main method signature directly.This aligns the Java front-end with Java's specification, where only
public static void main(String[] args)is recognized as a valid program entry point.Fixes: #759
