Description
As discussed on when we execute the crossbow build to the java-jars task we are not testing the built jars. Currently we are also only building the jars for JDK 1.8. We should both:
- Run Java tests over the built jars
- Build jars for other JDKs supported (11 and 17)

Research direction
Start with the crossbow java-jars task and its current JDK 1.8 build configuration, then trace how Java tests are invoked over built jars. Done means the task tests the generated jars and produces builds for JDK 1.8, 11, and 17.
