Update to Java 17 about alpine HOT 4 CLOSED

DN also supports H2 2.x now.

There's a note in the pom that states:

DO NOT UPDATE Datanucleus RDBMS beyond 5.2.7 (for now) due to breaking changes introduced in datanucleus/datanucleus-rdbms#375

I have been careful not to touch the RDBMS library as it breaks installations that use Postgres. I have not had an opportunity to find out root cause.

As you have already noticed, the underlying issue has been fixed in DN and I raised a PR for an update to the latest 5.2.x versions in #382.

But it looks like DN is developed by a single person. Obviously they're doing an amazing job in keeping the project alive, but I can't help but wonder if that can become a problem.

From my understanding Datanucleus offers commercial support and Google is a large customer as GCP implements it. Unfortunately, it's one of the last remaining JDO implementations available.
