[JENKINS-76199] Plugin using EOL amazon-linux-extras command

./src/main/java/hudson/plugins/ec2/ssh/EC2UnixLauncher.java references amazon-linux-extras which has been EOL since 2024-06-30:

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/linux/al2/ug/al2-extras.html

Additionally, this command installs Java 11 which the Jenkins project stopped supporting on 2024-06-18:

https://www.jenkins.io/blog/2024/06/11/require-java-17/

Lastly, this command assumes the underlying OS is Amazon Linux.

If lines 208-214 are needed at all, I request something current and cross-OS. Thanks.
