[Wiki] Java Article is outdated and doesn't reflect the current state of the java bucket #398

Description

@TayouVR

I was looking at how to install a JRE or JDK through scoop and the first link, that popped up in duckduckgo was this: https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/scoop/wiki/Java
It mentions a few packages, that don't exist under that name anymore, but also many that exist now aren't listed at all.

This article seems to need an overhaul, or alternatively it could just simply point to https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Java/tree/master/bucket and just let people browse the bucket directly...

    I think it will be better to create a Wiki page in the Java repo itself

    Moved https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Scoop/wiki/Java to https://github.com/ScoopInstaller/Java/wiki.

    Will structure and update page once I'm caught up with the lagging maintenance tasks for the Java repo.

    Is there any update? It is really confusing to follow "install adoptopenjdk" advise when there is no such one in repo actually (because it is called "temurin" nowadays).
