imports broken by whitespace over at least two lines cannot be parsed

[jsolomon8080]

Gradle 7.6.1
Spotless 6.25.0
Ubuntu 22.04
Java 11 or 17

Our code is:

import static foo.bar.
    FooClass.CONSTANT;

The import class package is very very long so it's broken across multiple lines, but I believe any import will reproduce the issue.

The spotless stacktrace is:

Step 'removeUnusedImports' found problem in 'path/to/offending/file.java':
14:84: error: <identifier> expected
com.google.googlejavaformat.java.FormatterException: 14:84: error: <identifier> expected
        at com.google.googlejavaformat.java.FormatterException.fromJavacDiagnostics(FormatterException.java:51)
        at com.google.googlejavaformat.java.RemoveUnusedImports.parse(RemoveUnusedImports.java:264)
        at com.google.googlejavaformat.java.RemoveUnusedImports.removeUnusedImports(RemoveUnusedImports.java:218)
        at com.diffplug.spotless.glue.java.GoogleJavaFormatRemoveUnusedImporterFormatterFunc.apply(GoogleJavaFormatRemoveUnusedImporterFormatterFunc.java:38)

Using toggleOffOn() with // spotless:off and // spotless:on around the offending import(s) makes no difference because the code cannot be parsed.

Gradle plugin block:

spotless {
    enforceCheck false
    java {
        toggleOffOn()
        target 'src/**/*.java'
        encoding 'UTF-8'
        lineEndings 'UNIX'
        importOrderFile("/path/to/import-order-file")
        removeUnusedImports()
    }   
}   

My workaround at the moment is to add:

targetExclude 'path/to/offending/file.java'

to our gradle plugin config.

At a minimum the toggleOffOn() should work but in theory, since this is legal java, the parser should be able to deal with it and it should just work.

The parser was able to handle such a line using spotless plugin 5.12.4.
