[Bug 1765885] Re: [FTBFS] groovy 2.4.15-1 ftbfs due to invalid javadoc links

FWIW I strongly encourage dropping such lines instead of commenting them
out.  It makes diffs shorter and easier to review, and the information
is not lost because it's still available in the diff itself.

Title:
  [FTBFS] groovy 2.4.15-1 ftbfs due to invalid javadoc links

Status in groovy package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Starting with openjdk-10 all invalid, unreachable, or nonexistent
  javadoc links cause the javadoc to throw out an error - until
  openjdk-9 they were simply ignored with at most a warning.

  groovy currently FTBFS due to:

  Starting process 'command '/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/javadoc''. Working directory: /<<PKGBUILDDIR>> Command: /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/javadoc @/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>/target/tmp/javadocAll/javadoc.options -J-Xmx1g
  Successfully started process 'command '/usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/bin/javadoc''
  javadoc: error - Error fetching URL: http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/
  javadoc: error - Error fetching URL: http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/7/api/
  javadoc: error - Error fetching URL: http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-cli/javadocs/api-release/
  javadoc: error - Error fetching URL: http://junit.org/junit4/javadoc/latest/
  javadoc: error - Error fetching URL: http://docs.oracle.com/javaee/6/api/
  javadoc: error - Error fetching URL: http://www.antlr2.org/javadoc/

  The fix is to replace all links with locally available apis and have
  the package build depend upon the packages that provide these files.
