git diff: update USE_JAVA

In the alert box in the top bar Jenkins gives this warning:

"Java 11 end of life in Jenkins

You are running Jenkins on Java 11, support for which will end on or after Sep 30, 2024. Refer to the documentation for more details."


I think it would be nice to start using Java 17 for Jenkins in the main branch of ports so in Q3 we have a supported JDK version in the 2024Q3 branch.

I have the attached patch build via poudriere and running in my home setup on RPI4/aarch64.

According to the https://www.freshports.org/java/openjdk17#packages packages overview Java 17 is available on all platforms.
