Deprecate Oracle 8 on ARM

Description
The current deprecation warnings are outdated. They refer to a situation lang ago on ARM32 (not ARM64) when there was a choice only between the unusable OpenJDK 8 and Oracle Java 8.
Now OpenJDK 9-11 come standard with distros like Debian Stretch. Those should be recommended.
My arguments against Oracle Java 8 on ARM 32:
- Throws SIGILL and SIGSEV every couple of days with busy i2p
- Much slower in my testing against OpenJDK 9.0.4 (built on machine) using Scimark2 and SpeedTest1
- Built from closed source using unknown options and linked to unknown libraries
- Cross-compiled using outdated beta tools (try objdump)

Updated the download text for Raspberry Pi to say "OpenJDK 9 for ARM" & link to point to https://openjdk.java.net/install/ — changes in 1760d1080c5cb80fe4b7090f6618b5748244bbdb

FreeBSD does not yet have OpenJDK version higher than 8.
Based upon this: https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=222568 - FreeBSD may go directly to the next long term release of OpenJDK which is version 11
