Migrate ACS to JRE/JDK 17, Python3 and Debian 12 systemvmtemplate

[yadvr]

Debian 12 is released now, and it's time to consider the following for 4.20 or later:

• Migrate ACS codebase to JDK17
• Create new systemvmtemplate based on Debian 12 "bookworm" (poc - systemvmtemplate: experimental Debian 12.x systemvmtemplate #7683)
• Migrate VR codebase to Python3 (old ticket: Migrate systemvm and VR scripts to Python3 #7500) or a new VR agent

Note: Debian 11 should be supported for another 2-3 years, and Debian 12.0 may not be super stable right now (I would wait till a 12.1 or 12.2)

[vishesh92]

To migrate ACS codebase to JDK17, some of things we need to do:

• Upgrade build packages
• Update github actions
• Migrate from gmaven-plugin to gmavenplus-plugin
• dependencies which require update or removal (incomplete list)
  • jetty
  • mockito to v4 or v5 - Upgrade to mockito 4 and handle Mockito deprecations #8427
  • bytebuddy
  • java argline params changes
  • maven plugins
  • replace cglib
  • replace sun packages

I think we can start to migrate to JRE17 first for which I see a PR already; in 4.21 or later we can migrate codebase to JDK17.
