[Bug 1537972] [NEW] Provide JRE compiled with javac -g flag

 

Public bug reported:

Java IDEs (like NetBeans) need a JRE which has been compiled with `-g`
flag of `javac` in order to display debug information. It'd be nice to
provide a separate JRE which Ubuntu users can use output-of-the-box to
run their IDE or programs running inside the IDE.
