[11u] RFR: 8218268: Javac treats Manifest Class-Path entries as Paths instead of URLs

Hi Jaikiran,

You'll probably have used JDK11 as bootstrap JDK. I guess most people do so today, given that JDK11 is LTS and JDK10 has been out of maintenance for quite some time now. However, there are a few folks around that still run build pipelines with JDK10.

Welcome. I just pushed it to 11u-dev.

Cheers
