It's not possible to use QuarkusIntegrationTest in case default Java version is less than 11

[snowdrop-bot]

Describe the bug

If you use quarkus-maven-plugin then QuarkusIntegrationTest allows to execute quarkus in a separate JVM using java command.
The setup can be this:

• default Java version is 8
• maven is executed with Java 11 (e.g. via setting $JAVA_HOME).

The result is : maven and everything inside it is executed using Java 11 as required for Quarkus.
But integration test executes java command disregarding maven: it runs a separate process.
I see this in DefaultJarLauncher:

List<String> args = new ArrayList<>();
        args.add("java");

So it's just java command .

Everything works fine at the same time if you use QuarkusTest: the same JVM is used to run maven and quarkus.

So if you have working QuarkusTest and decides to make it QuarkusIntegrationTest then test may become broken.

The setup when some specific Java is used to run maven and another Java is a system default Java is a generic case for Continuous integration servers.

Expected behavior

There is a way to run proper java process: it either should somehow get info about Java from Maven (e.g. using JAVA_HOME) or it may provide a way to set the path to the Java command (or both).

Actual behavior

System default java command is used which may have a version below 11.

How to Reproduce?

• Set Java 8 as a default Java.
• Set JAVA_HOME to JDK 11.
• Make a project with quarkus-maven-plugin
• Make an integration test using QuarkusIntegrationTest.
• Run it.

There will be an exception
