jpackage errors

[Andy Herrick]

1.) jpackage is only compatible with JDK9+,  so it can't work with 
--runtime-image pointing to JDK8, but clearly I need some work to detect 
that and display a clear error message.

2.) javax.script.ScriptException is a public API so I don't see why you 
would get this NoClassDefFoundError, can you shar the entire jpackage 
build command ?
