Where does even the `$JAVA_HOME_17_arm64` come from? Is it provided by GH? I don't recall setting variables with that weird case style in our GHA files.

I think (as @gdams told me) these are paths to the Java installation in the Github Runners which happen to be there.

I agree, to avoid the if statement, we could properly set it as input to get-jtreg.

We probably could also use the setup-java action here - however, this will then lead to downloading another JDK, not sure if this is a performance concern.
