[FTBFS] gradle ftbfs when built with openjdk-11

[Tiago Stürmer Daitx]

gradle 4.4-3 FTBFS when built with openjdk-11. Only gradle 4.8 added support for being built with openjdk-11 but as of gradle 4.5 it requires kotlin for the build which is not yet packaged in either Debian or Ubuntu.

The proposed patch backports 4 commits that allows gradle to be build with opendk-11. Gradle must first be bootstrapped with openjdk-10, then the resulting binaries can be used to build gradle with openjdk-11 - which is fine archive wise since we still use openjdk-10 as the default-jdk.

Please consider applying the proposed delta to enable the openjdk-11 migration.
