[Bug 2149878] [NEW] please remove openjdk-[25, 26, 27]--jvmci-jdk from resolute

[Vladimir Petko]

Public bug reported:

We have been building a JVMCI JDK binary since openjdk-24 (for amd64
only), primarily because it serves as a build-dependency for the
GraalVM JDK snap [1]. Last year, Oracle Inc. announced the detachment
of GraalVM from the Java ecosystem train [2]. While the implications
for the oracle/graal open-source project are not completely understood
at the moment, the Graal project will likely create its own JVMCI
binaries going forward [3].

I therefore propose we discontinue building this binary for
openjdk-25+ [4] and remove it from the archive
