It would be better to use the java toolchain support in gradle to define this directly and get rid of these instructions altogether. https://docs.gradle.org/current/userguide/toolchains.html

Context
See #604 for context. The Mantis project does not presently compile will all JDK versions larger or equal to 8.
Note that I haven't tested for at which point the incompatibility begins, just that JDK17 doesn't work.
I added a tip box for the tip about JDK selection tooling that @calvin681 gave me in #604.
I also ran through the rest of the guide and confirmed it's functional (with a slight adjustment to the wording around the port number selection incase that trips anyone up).
