Title:
  LibreOffice doesn't detect JVM because of unexpected java.vendor
  property value

Status in LibreOffice:
  Unknown
Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in openjdk-lts package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  libreoffice autopkgtests are failing on disco with openjdk
  11.0.3+4-2ubuntu1.

  The likely culprit is that change:

  +openjdk-lts (11.0.3+4-2ubuntu1) disco; urgency=medium
  +
  +  * Sync packages with 11.0.3+4-2:
  +    [ Matthias Klose ]
  +    - Configure with vendor flags.

  Indeed with version 11.0.3+4-1ubuntu1:

      $ java -XshowSettings -version 2>&1 | grep "java.vendor "
          java.vendor = Oracle Corporation

  And with version 11.0.3+4-2ubuntu1:

      $ java -XshowSettings -version 2>&1 | grep "java.vendor "
          java.vendor = Private Build

  Looking at the code in Libreoffice that looks for a JVM, it validates
  the vendor against a hardcoded list of known vendors:
  https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tree/jvmfwk/plugins/sunmajor/pluginlib/vendorlist.cxx?h=libreoffice-6-2#n33

  Not sure what the purpose of that upstream code is, but this means the
  new openjdk-11 build in Ubuntu breaks it.
