For JDK 8 there are other `THIRD_PARTY_README` files which would need the same treatment as the top-level-one:


$ find -name THIRD_PARTY_README | grep -v build/
./jaxp/THIRD_PARTY_README
./corba/THIRD_PARTY_README
./nashorn/THIRD_PARTY_README
./langtools/THIRD_PARTY_README
./hotspot/THIRD_PARTY_README
./jaxws/THIRD_PARTY_README
./THIRD_PARTY_README
./jdk/THIRD_PARTY_README


I'd suggest to fix the top level one and then apply the same patch to others. Note that the previous update of zlib to 1.2.13 didn't include the other THIRD_PARTY_README  changes.

THIRD_PARTY_README line 3046:

> 3044: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There is a trailing space after `included`. Please remove.

THIRD_PARTY_README line 3051:

> 3049: --- begin of LICENSE ---
> 3050: 
> 3051:   version 1.3.1, October 13th, 2022

1.3.1 got released on January 22, 2024. We should use that date.
