I want to be able to refactor a java class programmatically, and this could
consist of both moving the class to a different package and renaming the
class.
I've figured out how to get the ICompilationUnit from the IFile object, and
I see that there is a move function on the ICompilationUnit object.
The first argument is an IJavaElement container, which I assume is the new
package. Do I have to create this package first, or will it be created as
part of the move operation? If I have to create the package first, how do I
do that?

Yes, the package fragment has to exist before the move. You can create
it using IPackageFragmentRoot#createPackageFragment(...)
