[Task]: Migrate to build with Java11 #31677

Open Abacn opened 4 days ago

What needs to happen?

Currently Beam CI still uses Java8. There were build plugins and dependencies start dropping java8 support (e.g. the docker plugin beam used to use and we had to vendor the plugin into BeamDockerPlugin), or discussion is under way

Proactively, it is the time to migrate build system to Java11, while keep Java8 support. This paves way for future deprecation of Java8 and drop Java8 support for Beam if need to happen.
