[MCL-20691] Setting java executable to a non-java program does not show an error when it should

When an instillation's java executable path is set to an image for example, the launcher attempts to launch the game than does nothing. If you click play again, the launcher assumes the game is running just fine, when in fact it will never open.

To Reproduce:

Create a new installation profile
Set the Java Executable path to an image (I set it to C:\Users\MY_USER\Pictures\icons\minecraft\Cobbled_Deepslate.png)
Launch the game

Even after closing launcher, game is still running in background.png

Launcher launches fake java executable with no issue.png

nothing happens, click play again and launcher thinks game is running fine.png

Hi @unknown! I'm not able to reproduce this issue in the latest version of the Launcher; instead, I am given an Exit Code -1 crash. Is this still an issue for you?

Seems like it has been fixed. When? No idea. It is not an issue for v 10.0 2.2.10675.

Closing as 'cannot reproduce'.

If the issue will appear in the future, let us know, thanks!
