RFR: 8372155: ReleaseInfoPlugin doesn't handle input file as UTF-8 properly [v4]

> Please review this simple fix to `jlink`'s `--release-info` plugin to handle non-ASCII in vendor strings. The JDK build uses UTF-8 encoding for the produced `release` file that is being passed to `jlink` at build-time via the `--release-info` plugin. However, the plugin internally uses `java.util.Properties.load(InputStream)` API which assumes `ISO-8859-1` encoding of the input stream. The proposed fix is to use the `java.util.Prorperties.load(Reader)` API instead and pass it an `InputStreamReader` with `UTF-8` encoding.

> Testing:
> - [x] GHA
> - [x] `test/jdk/tools/jlink` tests including the new reg-test which fails prior and passes after the fix.

> Thoughts?
