Oracle JDK/JRE 9 is no longer updated. Should we remove nixexprs for those packages?

  • Built on platform(s)
    • NixOS
    • macOS
    • other Linux distributions
  • Tested via one or more NixOS test(s) if existing and applicable for the change (look inside nixos/tests)
  • Tested compilation of all pkgs that depend on this change using nix-shell -p nox --run "nox-review wip"
  • Tested execution of all binary files (usually in ./result/bin/)
  • Fits CONTRIBUTING.md.

I agree it would be nice to axe JDK 9 -- the new 6 month release schedule means we should kill it before too long, probably, and maybe even backport to 18.03... That can happen in another PR, though.

In the mean time I've tested this on my NixOS machine and it works nicely; and IMO I feel the warning about jdk9 is OK because openjdk is unfree anyway (so too many people won't be hurt). Merging.
