Heads up: planned Harfbuzz update in jdk11u-dev

[Lindenmaier, Goetz]

Hi,

Development of 11.0.16 started in jdk11u-dev.

I think we should now increment the C++ version
for harfbuzz to C++11.
Some later, we can backport the harfbuzz changes.
This gives everybody time to make sure the compilers
grok the C++11 flag before we do the code change.

Best regards,
  Goetz.
