Backport of [JDK-8348597](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8348597) from JDK17 that updates HarfBuzz to 10.4.0 (which [improves drawing performande by 10+% and includes different build fixes](https://newreleases.io/project/github/harfbuzz/harfbuzz/release/10.4.0)). Backport is not clean because it required adapting `make/lib/Awt2dLibraries.gmk` to fit JDK11.
Even though the backport built correctly, the resulting `jdk/lib/libfontmanager.so` contained undefined symbols that caused Swing tests to fail with `UnsatisfiedLinkError`. This is because JDK11 is missing [JDK-8334964](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8334964) that excludes hb-subset from compilation, so this is also included as the second commit in the pull request.
While at it, a third commit adds an additional `-Wno-attributes` flag to `HARFBUZZ_DISABLED_WARNINGS_CXX_gcc`, restoring the capability to build JDK11 on Linux with `gcc-4.8.5` (this is an old version of gcc, dating from 2015, but it's still the system gcc version in RHEL-7).
Tested
- on Windows 10 with `jdk:jfc_demo`.
- on Linux with `jdk:jfc_demo`, with
- `gcc 4.8.5/harfbuzz-1.7.5 (x86_64 & s390x)`,
- `gcc 8.5.0/harfbuzz-1.7.5 (x86_64)`,
- `gcc 11.5.0/harfbuzz-2.7.4 (x86_64)`
- and `gcc 14.2.1/harfbuzz-9.0.0 (x86_64)`
with both `--with-harfbuzz=system` and `--with-harfbuzz=bundled`.
