jdk8u322 release and packaging

[Thorsten Glaser]

Hi,

> Welcome to OpenJDK maintenance :-)

thanks ☻

> Recreating it just for building the source is considerably easier:

> $ mv openjdk/{corba,jaxp,jaxws,langtools,nashorn,jdk,hotspot} .

>   tar cJf ${repos}.tar.xz ${repos}
>   done

OK, so the listed top-level directories under the monorepo *directly*
correspond to the old repositories, and the remainder of the monorepo
is the old “root” repository?

Yeah, it’ll be a bit more complicated considering aarch32 and
aarch64-shenandoah… but this helps already. I still have no idea
what I’d do if either of these changes anything outside of hotspot…

Just doing 8 here; 11/17 are actively maintained by doko, and
7 has ended (ELTS supplies 8 instead).

bye,
