[hibernate-dev] Updated JDKs on ci.hibernate.org

[Sanne Grinovero]

All tests relating to Lucene which use the FSDirectory are failing
because of an issue the Lucene team already reported.
That obviously "kills" the Hibernate Search testsuite, but also
created a couple of failures with Hibernate OGM.

Sorry for the noise, I'll disable both until we get to know what fix
will be needed.

It's a controversial issue, as the Lucene was taking advantage of a
not-explicitly documented semantic of NIO to flush all files of a
directory in a single atomic operation, but requesting a flush on the
File instance which represents the Directory.
The JDK now disallows this; I'm not sure yet if Lucene will need to
find an alternative flushing strategy or rather if the OpenJDK team
will reconsider.
