Consolidate java version numbers in one place and reuse them across build parts [LUCENE-10631] #11667
Description
[R. Muir/ mailing list discussions]
Ideally we could consolidate a lot of them in a simple .properties file that contains the min/max major version numbers. could be then sucked in by:
- gradle logic
- java logic such as checks done in WrapperDownloader
- bash logic such as error messaging in ./gradlew.sh
- python smoketester logic?
