Description

Javadoc generation fails on java 11 due to an unexported package:

[javadoc] Constructing Javadoc information...
[javadoc] /my/local/cassandra/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/utils/JMXServerUtils.java:311: error: package sun.rmi.registry is not visible
[javadoc]     private static class JmxRegistry extends sun.rmi.registry.RegistryImpl {
[javadoc]                                                     ^
[javadoc]   (package sun.rmi.registry is declared in module java.rmi, which does not export it to the unnamed module)
[javadoc] 1 error

The attached patch adds the existing "jdk11-javac-exports" property as an embedded argument to the <javadoc> called in the create-javadoc macro.
