Hey,
I am opening this PR to allow Oak to work with JDK>=8, with minimal effort and without having to change a lot of code.
While still using Unsafe and other sealed packages, though it is not encouraged anymore, and there exists some new alternatives that could replace them.
my changes introduce a new profile to the poms that we in order compile with JDK>= 8 and to run with JDK>=11
two tests fail when ran with JDK17, due to the changes introduced to the JDK past JDK8, which I need your help with (I still think there would be minimal effort to fix them)
