Payara Server is an open source middleware platform that supports reliable and secure deployments of Java EE (Jakarta EE) and MicroProfile applications in any environment: on premise, in the cloud or hybrid.
https://github.com/payara/Payara/pull/6677 introduced breaking changes to Core classes, which in turn broke Enterprise.
This reinstates semantic versioning and "unbreaks" the changes.

Testing Performed
Built this branch and started the domain - everything bon.
Built Payara Enterprise - compiles correctly.
I haven't tested for leaks (yet™), but I don't believe I've reintroduced usage of the non-WeakReference or Atomic variables anywhere.
Testing Environment
Windows 11, Zulu 11.0.23
Documentation
N/A
Notes for Reviewers
I am aware these changes are ugly and fragile. It is however the state we end up in when we have a split codebase and enforce semantic versioning. We're in a bit of a pickle because the Core major versions are somewhat tied to Jakarta APIs - 7.0.0.Alpha1 has already been released for usage with Payara 7.
Naming is also hard - if you can think of better names for the "new" variables & classes please suggest them!
