This is a follow-up to LP: #1814133, getting 18.04 LTS and 18.10 updated
to OpenJDK 11.

IcedTea 1.7.2 should be be backported, keeping two binary packages which
are not present anymore in 19.04:

 - icedtea-8-plugin: Browsers don't support the plugin API anymore.
 - icedtea-netx-common.

Both packages should be shipped as empty packages.

Validation: Make sure that javaws still works after the upgrade.
