Release Note: JavaFX 25 Requires JDK 23 or Later - In Progress
Description
Even though we build JavaFX binaries with JDK 23 as the boot JDK, the latest version of JavaFX still builds and runs with JDK 22, although it isn't tested with older JDK versions.

In order for JavaFX to be able to use more recent JDK features, we should increase the minimum version of the JDK that can run the latest JavaFX. Additionally, there is an ongoing cost to keeping JavaFX buildable and runnable on older versions of Java, and little reason to continue to do so.

This JBS issue proposes to bump the minimum version of the JDK needed to run JavaFX to JDK 23. This enhancement must not be backported to any earlier version.
