Eric Anderson 1dee7efca4 Avoid accidental Java 9+ dependency with --release
In d654707 we swapped compiling the uploaded artifacts to Java 11. This
caused ABI issues with ByteBuffer, like clear() returning ByteBuffer
instead of Buffer.

There are source-level approaches to avoid the accidental ABI dependency
on Java 11, but we have no tool able to detect such breakages.
We use Animalsniffer for similar cases, but it fails to detect these[1].
Since we have no tool, source-level approaches can't gain the necessary
confidence that all incompatibility fixes have been resolved.

Java has had javac-level ways to address this, but they used to require
setting bootclasspath. Since Java 9, though, they made it easier and we
can use --release, which does exactly what we need.

Fixes #10432
