Is there a plan to support JDK 25 since it's out?

This entire repo will likely be deprecated before too long since FFM makes it much less relevant. As for java 25, the various dev and CI tools need to support it before that's an option.

This PR was created before I decided to completely remove DS-java's dependence on DS-memory by using FFM starting with the upcoming DS-Java 9.0.0 release based on Java 25. With a few exceptions, FFM provides all the necessary functionality so that part was relatively straightforward, but tedious. After that was done I decided it was a good time to do some major cleanup of DS-Java as well, which is in process now.

As for this PR, all it does is make the DS-Memory able to run on 22, 23, and 24. Now that 25 is out and LTS, I don't see any reason to bother with merging this PR because as soon as the DS-Java 9.0.0 release is out, the DS-Memory repo will be deprecated.

This DS-Memory as served us well for over 10 years by providing high performance off-heap functionality that it has taken the Java language 10 years to adopt. Now is the time to let it R.I.P. :)
