[MPIR-480] add Java Version history

[jira-importer]

Hervé Boutemy opened MPIR-480 and commented

like MPLUGIN-400 MPLUGIN-510 was done for prerequisites for Maven Plugins

having such an history for Java Version of any component will be useful

Affects: 3.8.0

• MPIR-263 improve minimum java requirement when m-compiler-p not explicitely configured: use default properties

Do you think about Project Summary - summary report?

[hboutemy]

yes, for plugins we do "System Requirements History" like https://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-clean-plugin/plugin-info.html done by MPLUGIN-400 MPLUGIN-510

for components, we currently list the JDK used for build https://maven.apache.org/shared/maven-archiver/summary.html
what is useful is:

1. the target JDK, not really JDK used for building = [MPIR-481] clarify Java Version: build, target or release? #330 / MPIR-481
2. and even the history

in addition to having the data in MANIFEST.MF = apache/maven-archiver#259 MSHARED-1466
