In this PR we bump the Graal version used by CI to the latest JDK 21 release. We do this by separating the JAVA_HOME setting step (as JAVA_HOME has to stay JDK 17 for the gradle wrapper to work) and the GRAALVM_HOME setting step. To this goal, the java version must be set to an exact version (such as 17.0.12) if we want to use a graalvm distribution in the actions/setup-java@v4 action, as leaving it as 17 fails with:

Error: Could not find GraalVM for SemVer 17

Fixes: #838
