Add support for Java 9 VersionString Scheme (JEP 223)

[helospark]

Background

In Java 9 the JEP223 has changed the format of java.version and now breaking the functionality of org.jadira.usertype.spi.utils.runtime.JavaVersion class. The representation of java.version will return as "9", "9.x.y", "9-ea", instead of the earlier format of 1.9.*

For early access release returns the string "9-ea", and therefore JavaVersion class throws an exception:

Caused by: java.lang.NumberFormatException: For input string: "9-ea"
    at java.base/java.lang.NumberFormatException.forInputString(NumberFormatException.java:65)
    at java.base/java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:652)
    at java.base/java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:770)
    at org.jadira.usertype.spi.utils.runtime.JavaVersion.<clinit>(JavaVersion.java:15)

AC

• Please accept new representation of Java version strings.

Any update here? Should be a simple fix to apply.

[chrisphe]

I've applied the supplied pr... apologies for not getting on to this sooner

[davidkarlsen]

Awesome. Do you think you could do a release too?

[chrisphe]

Yes, will be building one, there's a few other issues I want to close off, but should be very soon.
