Add further editions of java #72

Open hohwille opened 11 months ago

hohwille commented 11 months ago

As an IDEasy user, I want to be able to install the latest Java (JDK) so that I can start using and evaluation the latest LTS. Currently Java 21 LTS is released. However, even weeks after the release adoptium/temurin does not yet offer 21 builds for download. As a result, I can not install Java 21 with IDEasy (or devonfw-ide). But e.g. Microsoft already provides Java 21 builds of OpenJDK for windows.

Here is an overview of OpenJDK distributions (editions): https://bell-sw.com/blog/oracle-java-alternatives-comparison-of-openjdk-distributions/?utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=20379923274&utm_content=160006782428&utm_term=kwd-823725544058&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI0rOL_8vogQMVy4poCR2Rsw83EAAYASAAEgLJWvD_BwE#mcetoc_1h197r93f2ij

So the idea would be to have a quick analysis if some alternative provider should be added as further edition in ide-urls. If we find something suitable an additional UrlUpdater shall be implemented.

java_version_21_35 java_version_22_36 jdk_21

@hohwille I can install the latest java versions replacing the previous version successfully and also the JDK versions 21 and 22 are provided. Could you please retest this bug?
