Context: #4567

We want to support using OpenJDK 11 to build Xamarin.Android projects.
For better or worse, we can't "change the entire world," not all at
once. In particular, the Android Designer Integration Tests do not
currently support building with or running under JDK 11.

"Split the difference", kind of: Instead of installing Corretto JDK 8
into $HOME/android-toolchain/jdk, install JetBrains OpenJDK 8 and 11
into the new paths:

  • $HOME/android-toolchain/jdk-1.8
  • $HOME/android-toolchain/jdk-11

We will continue using JDK 1.8 by default, until PR #4567 is ready
to completely merge, at which point we'll use JDK 11 to build
Xamarin.Android, while continuing to use JDK 1.8 with the Designer.

We will continue *using* JDK 1.8 by default, until PR dotnet#4567 is ready
