Update: we are blocked on the release of the packer image due to (JDK unrelated) AWS Windows 2019 issue: jenkins-infra/packer-images#1702

trusted.ci.jenkins.io has a manual workaround but we consider it as updated see #4500 (comment)

all controllers have been upgraded to the latest LTS so are using the correct JDKs: #4529
