Graal CE 19.0 fails to build native images

[michael-simons]

In several integration tests, i.e. Vertx and my upcoming Neo4j extension, native images cannot be build with Graal CE 19.0:

You'll see those errors when trying to build the vertx example / integration test "by hand" and adding -H:+ReportExceptionStackTraces

I created this option to have this in the Maven and Gradle plugins.
