Thanks for catching that! Java 8 should work too, but we should be consistent in recommending 11.

Change Description
When going through the documentation for installing Hail on OSX, I noticed that the syntax for installing Java via Homebrew was out of date.
This PR updates the documentation to use the latest syntax for Homebrew. It also updates the command to install version 11 of Temurin instead of version 8.
Security Assessment
Impact Description
This change updates documentation only and has no immediate end user impact.
This change updates the recommended version of Temurin to a newer version (11 vs. 8). It is reasonable to assume that the newer version is at least as secure as previous versions. So, there also should be no negative security impact on future users of this documentation.
