[Java] arrow-vector 16.1.0 has a change that breaks Java 8 support

[pjfanning]

Describe the bug, including details regarding any error messages, version, and platform.

arrow-vector 16.0.0 works fine for us but upgrading to 16.1.0 causes compile issues for us when we build with Java 8.

We found this in the Apache Pekko CI build.

ByteBuffer inherits rewind from Buffer and Java 8 has this method.

https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/nio/Buffer.html#rewind--

I have seem issues in Java 8 where you need to cast to java.nio.Buffer for this to work reliably.

In https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-18197, there were issues where we got on some Java8 installations.

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: java.nio.ByteBuffer.position(I)Ljava/nio/ByteBuffer;

We had to upgrade protobuf-java (which had the ByteBuffer code that was causing us issues) to get this fix:
protocolbuffers/protobuf@d40aadf

See https://www.morling.dev/blog/bytebuffer-and-the-dreaded-nosuchmethoderror/

Arrow has this cast in a different part of the code.

arrow/java/c/src/main/java/org/apache/arrow/c/NativeUtil.java

Line 57 in dcdf4e6

((ByteBuffer) ((Buffer) reader).rewind()).get(bytes);

Could we add a similar cast in the method that is causing issues?

arrow/java/vector/src/main/java/org/apache/arrow/vector/ipc/message/MessageSerializer.java

Line 704 in dcdf4e6

messageBuffer.rewind();
