Updates to Java requirements for TFS Search

The search feature of Team Foundation Server (TFS) uses Elasticsearch, which depends on Java SE. Until now, Oracle Java SE was the supported version of JRE for TFS search. With the change in Oracle licensing terms, there will be no more "free public Java updates" and users are required to buy a subscription to continue to get JRE updates for commercial use. We've heard from lots of customers wanting other options and we're happy to announce that TFS Search is now supported with Azul Zulu OpenJDK, allowing you to choose between Azul Zulu OpenJDK and Oracle JRE based on your needs. We have been using Azul Zulu OpenJDK to run the search capabilities in our hosted Azure DevOps Services for a while now so we are confident that search will work seamlessly with Azul Zulu OpenJDK for our on-premises customers also. From the next major version of TFS (Azure DevOps Server 2019), customers selecting installation of Java during install time will have Azul Zulu OpenJDK 8 community version as the default option.
