Michel's Haiku apps, ports and resources: Java ports

Java once held out the promise "Write once, run everywhere". It didn't quite work out like that, but there are still a number of Java apps that can be made to run on Haiku.

Required: The latest Java runtime from the official Haiku repositories. At the time of writing, installing openjdk21_default will see you through. There are a few exceptions that insist on a specific Java version and will install it for you, or that default back to the ancient openjdk8 that is packaged with Haiku.
