Use OpenJDK builds provided by jdk.java.net? #212

Description

@agudian

With Oracle providing builds of OpenJDK (including updates) on http://jdk.java.net under the GPLv2 (with Classpath Exception), how about using those binaries the Docker images?

That would allow more timely updates and decouple the Java version updates from package and version cycles of the different Linux distros. That would be interesting especially for the Alpine variants that missed most of the last updates.

Or does anything speak against that?

(this is a bit more general than what's asked in #211)
