Subject: [PATCH] docs: correct the documented minimum Java version

The README states that Java 8 or higher is required, but the project has
not been buildable on Java 8 for some time: maven-compiler-plugin is
configured with <release>11</release>, and the integration workflow only
ever exercises Java 11, 17 and 21. A user on Java 8 hits a compilation
failure with no indication that the documented requirement is wrong.

Correct the stated minimum to Java 11 and align the javadoc plugin, which
was still pinned to <source>1.8</source> while the compiler targeted 11.

Also bump the version in the installation snippet from 4.1.0 to 4.1.2 to
match the latest release.
