The version previously bundled by nvidia with nvidia-cuda-toolkit (up to
10.1.168) is an ancient 8u77 amd64 build, packaged as
nvidia-openjdk-8-jre in non-free.

For the purposes of src:nvidia-cuda-toolkit, a stripped down version of
openjdk-8 should be sufficient: only amd64 and ppc64el builds, only -jre
(no -jdk), and it could be moved to contrib to reduce exposure even further.
