Also, not sure if it's worth it, but perhaps instead of constants like
MIMINUM_JAVA_X we can have a class JavaVersion that follows the same logic we
have in Version

I think the problem here would be that say we release 3.5 in a week.
Then two years later Java 8 comes out... we can't know today how to detect it.
So all we can do is say that we are 'at least' java 7 because we have XYZ.
> Add some more constants for newer Java versions to Constants.class, remove
