Tests in GoogleCloudStorageBlobStoreRepositoryTests are known
to be flaky on JDK 8 (#51446, #52430 ) and we suspect a JDK
bug (https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8180754) that triggers
some assertion on the server side logic that emulates the Google
Cloud Storage service.
Sadly we were not able to reproduce the failures, even when using
the same OS (Debian 9, Ubuntu 16.04) and JDK (Oracle Corporation
1.8.0_241 [Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM 25.241-b07]) of
almost all the test failures on CI. While we spent some time fixing
code (#51933, #52431) to circumvent the JDK bug they are still flaky
on JDK-8. This commit mute these tests for JDK-8 only.
