The "System Requirements" page for each release lists the JDK it was
built with and tested most extensively with; eg
https://lucene.apache.org/core/8_10_1/SYSTEM_REQUIREMENTS.html (JDK8
there; 9.0 will target JDK11)

That is pretty conservative but safe. Generally speaking we are always
testing cutting-edge JDKs, so you can be pretty confident about say
JDK11, but it's best to run your own tests, of course.
