While you are using the built 'apt' in this way, apt is still talking to
the methods (including http) installed on your system, not the ones you
just built (and patched), so it would have been rather mysterious if it
had worked. ☺

Try:
$ cmdline/apt -o Acquire::Check-Valid-Until=false update -o dir::bin::methods=$(pwd)/methods
$ cmdline/apt install -y openjdk-11-jdk -o dir::bin::methods=$(pwd)/methods

(There are other things apt will still use the installed version of,
 including config files and such, but that isn't important now)


Might be worthwhile to try the whole battery of the http changes Julian
did instead of just the single one as they interact with each other even
if they are somewhat independent.


Best regards
