It turns out bookkeeper still expects libnetty-3.9-java to be there despite its dependency on libnetty-java. Since we plan to remove libnetty-3.9-java the right way forward is to upgrade bookkeeper to the version 4.7 which uses Netty 4.x (the versions 4.5 and 4.6 use a beta version of zookeeper that isn't available yet, the version 4.7 reverted to the stable version already in Debian). Unfortunately the version 4.7 currently fails to build due to the lombok incompatibility with Java 9+ (see #893312). I uploaded bookkeeper because it was a dependency of hadoop, but it isn't in Debian yet. So this issue can be ignored for now.
