The issue is that you can't upgrade to Java 11 when you are running
CGLIB due to its use of sun.misc.Unsafe.

This will cause problems. I'd rather ensure we have a good path
forward, and Java 11 is in september. We can't break API in 8.x so we
are stuck with CGLIB apis we expose.

Unfortunately CGLIB usage is not private/internal to wicket itself but
is exposed in a couple public APIs.

Of course, if we had relesed Wicket 8 with CGLIB in it, this problem
would still exist, and perhaps Wicket 8 would be a short lived
maintained version if we were forced to remove our dependency on CGLIB
(which is unclear at the moment)
