I have bumped the ASM version in [0dbdde7](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/25008/commits/0dbdde7bf6a0343acca74b284a8114c60919dd25) because various HotSpot tests use ASM fail under JDK 26 without this change.

This can be rolled back later after [JDK-8356548](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8356548)
