Dropping Java 8 support in 2.22.0, as it would give the user base only 6 months 
before GeoServer stops supporting Java 8 altogether
(2.20.x is about to get its last release, 2.21.x will live only up to March 
2023).

The 2.21.0 release already contained a 
warning<https://eur06.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgeoserver.org%2Fannouncements%2F2022%2F05%2F24%2Fgeoserver-2-21-0-released.html&data=05%7C01%7Cjukka.rahkonen%40maanmittauslaitos.fi%7C9d17ccaa1bb34abc64cf08da8b323968%7Cc4f8a63255804a1c92371d5a571b71fa%7C0%7C0%7C637975345083783961%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=flo7mSfrbCXpw9%2BXGdKqL94NY01RxIxDICkHXlo%2Bn%2FU%3D&reserved=0>,
 quoting:
"This is likely to be the last release that supports Java 8 and we encourage 
users to start to make the transition to Java 11 during the lifetime of this 
branch."

The message was too easy to ignore IMHO, I'd prefer to have a 2.22.0 with a 
title stating in unequivocal terms "This is the last release supporting Java 8, 
upgrade now".

Cheers
Andrea

 for details, general idea is to drop Java 8 support so we can update 
dependencies and plan Jakarta migration.

Thanks to foss4g code sprint and Euan Mitchell for initial pull request for 
docs:

If this proposal is ready for the 2.22.0 release it would simplify the process 
of setting up build jobs for the new release cycle. Vote early, vote often...
