Summary: Detect ConcJUnit rt.jar Version Mismatch

Initial Comment:
If the Java version that DrJava is running in is not the same as the Java version that was used when the ConcJUnit rt.jar file was written, then the Interactions JVM will fail to start. The error message is cryptic.

We should store the version in the rt.jar file (perhaps in a manifest) and compare it before the Interactions JVM is started. If the version does not match, we can present the user with the options to (a) disable Lucky warnings, (b) regenerate the rt.jar file with the current Java version, or (c) not have a functioning Interactions JVM.
