The PR should at least do builds on Linux x86, Linux x86_64, Windows and Mac once GitHub Actions are turned on. To run the JTreg tests and produce cross-compiled builds, we need to be able to pass the built JDK from one stage to another, which requires backporting bundles or some alternative I'll try and look that again after the July update is out of the way.

It won't really help on AArch64 though, as I don't believe there's any AArch64 hardware on Gitlab. So the most we can do is cross-compile for AArch64.
