[VOTE] Release Apache Tomcat 8.5.77

The proposed Apache Tomcat 8.5.77 release is now available for voting.

The notable changes compared to 8.5.76 are:

- Fix a potential thread-safety issue that could cause HTTP/1.1 request
    processing to pause, and potentially timeout, waiting for additional
    data when the full request has been received.

- Fix a regression introduced with 65757 bugfix which better identified
    non request threads but which introduced a similar problem when user
    code was doing sequential operations in a single thread.

- When resolving methods in EL expressions that use beans and/or static
    fields, ensure that any custom type conversion is considered when
    identifying the method to call.

Along with lots of other bug fixes and improvements.

This is the second release of Tomcat 8.5 that has been built with Java 
11 (in Java 7 mode) instead of Java 7. Please report any strangeness you 
may observe especially if you are running Tomcat 8.5 in an environment 
using Java < 11. We don't expect any issues, but understand that we 
cannot test all possible environmental configurations.

For full details, see the changelog:
https://nightlies.apache.org/tomcat/tomcat-8.5.x/docs/changelog.html

It can be obtained from:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/tomcat/tomcat-8/v8.5.77/
The Maven staging repo is:
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachetomcat-1363
The tag is:
https://github.com/apache/tomcat/tree/8.5.77
3931695e564dd4dd1dbf029026e900b74992408c

The proposed 8.5.77 release is:
[ ] Broken - do not release
[ ] Stable - go ahead and release as 8.5.76 (stable)

Works with a vanilla servlet application in development environment.

[x] Stable - go ahead and release as 8.5.77 (stable)


Tested on Windows 10.
Smoke tests OK (installer, Java 7, examples).

Unit tests OK (Java 11), OK with well-known caveats (Java 7, 8, 17) .

Unit tests with Java 17: OK as is, but one test fails. It needs an
updated version of ecj library.
More details are at BZ 65599 and in related discussions on dev@
https://bz.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=65599

Unit tests with Java 8:
OK, with some settings in the build.properties file.
The recipe is the same as when testing Tomcat 9.0.60 with Java 8,
from the "Running unit tests with JVMs < 11" thread (Feb 09, 2022)
https://lists.apache.org/thread/mltqyq912z97klqvzg0d5mb7h658j734

Unit tests with Java 7:
OK, but in addition to the settings for Java 8 it needs older versions
of easymock and objenesis libraries.
The recipe - see "Running cipher-suite tests without failure" thread
(Feb 24, 2022),
https://lists.apache.org/thread/42rkw48o00nzoxnr11jlst2d8p2y6bh5
