Bug#1000405: Please accept other JRE versions besides the default one

Package: libbatik-java
Version: 1:0.95.dfsg-5
The libbatik-java package currently recommends “default-jre”, itself
depending on “default-jre-headless (= 2:1.11-72) [not hppa]”, itself
depending on “openjdk-11-jre-headless [not hppa]”. But libbatik-java
would work equally well with any posterior version, such as openjdk-17-
jre-headless.
Please rather recommend “java-runtime-headless” if libbatik-java also
works with java 8, or otherwise, consider some appropriate means to
recommend any headless jre from 11 onwards.
(This request is similar to
