Do we plan to transition 11u to jtreg 7? Doing so has quite a long tail of dependencies: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8289798

I think this is being backported for [8321480: ISO 4217 Amendment 176 Update](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk17u-dev/commit/223018a3aabc319992d9790fa1d6c88b02fcca9f) because it contains some follow-on unrelated test changes from this patch.  You could do 8321480 without this patch - I think we'll have to in 8u as jtreg 7 needs JDK 11 - but I don't want to do that if we are going to bring this change in, as it will make this change unclean and risk missing the post-8310923 changes in 8321480.

Incidentally, this one is in 11.0.24-oracle, not 11.0.23-oracle.
