[Impact]
Currently java-atk-wrapper 0.33.3-20 FTBFS during the Bionic rebuild [1] because it can't find the javah binary.

The javah binary has been removed from OpenJDK 10 and the java compiler
should be used in its place to build native headers by calling "javac
-h".

[Test Case]
Build java-atk-wrapper 0.33.3-20 in Bionic with a current default-jdk (ie. depends on openjdk-11-jdk), it should FTBFS with:

checking for javah... no
configure: error: Java 1.6 or later is required to build java-access-bridge

When fixed the build is build is expected to succeed.

[Regression Potential]
No regression is expected as javah is not used by java-atk-wrapper.

[Other Info]
 * java-atk-wrapper does not use javah although it is currently declared in configure.ac, the build succeeds by simply removing the javah check.
