Java 9/10 compatibility

[andersrye]

lein-immutant doesnt seem to work with Java 9/10. Seems to be an issue in clj-http-lite: hiredman/clj-http-lite#17 .

With profiles.clj: {:user {:plugins [[lein-immutant "2.1.0"]]}}

~ $ java --version

--add-modules=java.xml.bind is a workaround

~ $ export _JAVA_OPTIONS=--add-modules=java.xml.bind
~ $ lein immutant
Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: --add-modules=java.xml.bind
Couldn't find project.clj, which is needed for immutant

This is breaking my projects, because I can't deploy for production. That work around is a huge relief, though.
EDIT: The workaround works on some linux distros that happen to include those modules, but Ubuntu's java packages do not, so the workaround fails.
