Description
**Describe the Feature Request**
Please update the Open JDK version that is included in the `-browsers` version of `cimg-node` to the next LTS version (17).
This was previously reported in #352, but that issue made no mention of the `-browsers` image.
**Is your feature request related to a particular problem?**
Support for OpenJDK11–which is included in the `-browsers` version of `cimg-node`–has ended on September 30th 2023. Some tools executed on jobs based on this image are ending support for Java11.
**How will this feature request benefit CircleCI jobs using this image?**
Without this upgrade, certain jobs might fail. If users upgrade OpenJDK in their own jobs, compute time & energy will be wasted.
**Describe the solution you would like to see**
Probably a 1 character change on line 25 of [`browsers.Dockerfile.template`](https://github.com/CircleCI-Public/cimg-node/blob/main/variants/browsers.Dockerfile.template#L25)
**Describe alternatives you have considered**
Users of the `-browsers` images could install this in their own jobs, but then why include it in these images at all..
If it'd be of use, I'm happy to open a PR.
