> In oal.util.Constants we have some constants about the 64 bitness and Java version and vendor info. Especially theres also parsing of system properties to get major and minor Java version.
> We should change this in main and 9.x to use https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/11/docs/api/java.base/java/lang/Runtime.html#version() and the version class. The version class also allows to compare in a safe way. The good thing is that you also get minor bugfix info, so code could disable stuff exactly at specific versions that are buggy.
> We should also cleanup the constants. In 9.x and main we still have `JRE_IS_MINIMUM_JAVA8`! We should remove this constants (+ deprecate in 9.x and set to true) and change all code relying on the to execute code for java 8. Same for 11 and 17.
