Would it suffice if I show the result of the diff between JDK API Documentation built at the tip of this PR branch (docs) and that of the jdk/master commit (docs-old) from which this PR branches? If so, please have a look:


    % diff -qnr build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs-old                                                
    Files build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs/api/index-files/index-9.html and build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs-old/api/index-files/index-9.html differ
    Files build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs/api/java.base/java/lang/class-use/Exception.html and build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs-old/api/java.base/java/lang/class-use/Exception.html differ
    Files build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs/api/java.base/java/lang/class-use/Override.html and build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs-old/api/java.base/java/lang/class-use/Override.html differ
    Files build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs/api/java.base/java/lang/class-use/String.html and build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs-old/api/java.base/java/lang/class-use/String.html differ
    Files build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs/api/java.base/java/lang/reflect/class-use/Method.html and build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs-old/api/java.base/java/lang/reflect/class-use/Method.html differ
    Files build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs/api/jdk.jshell/jdk/jshell/execution/JdiDefaultExecutionControl.html and build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs-old/api/jdk.jshell/jdk/jshell/execution/JdiDefaultExecutionControl.html differ
    Files build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs/api/jdk.jshell/jdk/jshell/execution/RemoteExecutionControl.html and build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs-old/api/jdk.jshell/jdk/jshell/execution/RemoteExecutionControl.html differ
    Files build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs/api/member-search-index.js and build/macosx-aarch64/images/docs-old/api/member-search-index.js differ

As I said in the PR description, the differences are insignificant and confined to class-use and index structures. Well, except for jdk.jshell. But even there it might be okay for now.
