Hello @AnthonyMastrean, @ZeddG93 and @jordigg
I update Apache Ant to version 1.10.8, please merge when you have time.

I have also removed dependency on jre8, it is in general a bad practice for a Java application to depend on a specific version JDK or JRE as most programmers already have those installed and their JAVA_HOME defined. Nowadays people use different versions of Java versions (6, 8, 11, 14 and etc) or distributions (Oracle, J9, tons of OpenJDK distributions) depending on their work environments, so it is generally not desirable to be forced to use Oracle JRE 8.
For example, Gradle and Maven packages on Chocolatey did not depend on any JDK or JRE, programmers are free to install their own, from Chocolatey or not.

Thank you for your time!
