Subject: [PATCH] ci(java): run Java 11 and 17 builds in parallel with matrix
 strategy

Split the Java 17 workflow into a matrix for Java 11 and Java 17.
Run Checkstyle once in a dedicated Java 17 job and skip the lifecycle-bound Checkstyle execution in the matrix builds to avoid redundant work.

Closes #1331.
