Description

Due to the recent changes in the Jenkinsfiles which are now streamlined, this plugin is not tested anymore with toolchains. That means, we currently do not test with Java 8 running Maven and Java 11 Toolchains.

However, as this is an improbable and unlikely scenario, we can do the following:

• Require Java 11 for the plugin
• Move classes from the java9 source folder to the java source folder

We could move to Java 9 only, but I do not see any benefit from using a long-dead non-LTS version as a baseline.
