Modern JDKs (11+)reject -source/-target 1.4/1.5/6/7 outright, and even where compilationsucceeds a new JDK silently emits bytecode that will not load on theminimum supported Java 8 runtime.Establish a tree-wide Java 8 bytecode floor and fix the bundled externalsso the tree builds on any JDK from 8 through 21 while all artifacts remainloadable on a Java 8 JRE.
