Update target files to include JustJ JREs https://eclipse.dev/justj/ with respective version for that release. Use latest available JRE version for respective major version. This will make it easier for end-users to use Trace Compass because Java doesn't need to be installed separately and it will include the correct, required version. Notes: - The stripped version of the JRE is used with debug information stripped and excluding the src.jar with sources used only for debugging. This minimizes the size of the JRE package because it's less than 1/2 the size of the corresponding full version. If you'd like to debug the RCP (e.g. using remote debugging), use a separated JVM as described below. - To run the RCP with a different JVM (e.g. installed on user's laptop), open the tracecompass.ini file and modify the path settings for -vm. Or remove it completely then the default JRE of the computer is used. Signed-off-by: Bernd Hufmann <bernd.hufmann@ericsson.com>
