JDK-8011044 - Remove support for 1.5 and earlier source and target options
Description
As reported here:
https://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/compiler-dev/2021-August/017755.html

The Attr.visitIdent.noOuterThisPath variable is unnecessary, as it is currently only assigned to false. This is a consequence of -source <= 5 support removal.
