various: Use zulu jdk builds for REQUIRES.
As noted in the FAQ, you can still use Oracle's JDK for
building or running, but we'll default to the Zulu builds
in the REQUIRES since they are easily downloadable.

Zulu is a good default for us at SBo since it is available
for both 32 and 64 bit, freely downloadable and compatible
and they provide builds for all the LTS branches.

We don't currently have builds for Adoptium (previously
AdoptOpenJDK, not part of the Eclipse Foundation), but if
someone wants to submit builds for them, we can include them
too. Note though that they do not provide 32 bit builds.

Software should run with either Zulu or Oracle's JDK, or
indeed any other builds of OpenJDK, so if I have broken your
build with this change, apologies. This should be rare and
we can change the REQUIRES back to jdkX in that case and note
it in the README, but I do not expect this should be the case.

FastQC: A quality control tool for high throughput sequence data

FastQC aims to provide a simple way to do some quality control checks
on raw sequence data coming from high throughput sequencing pipelines.
It provides a modular set of analyses which you can use to give a
quick impression of whether your data has any problems of which you
should be aware before doing any further analysis.

The main functions of FastQC are

- Import of data from BAM, SAM or FastQ files (any variant)
- Providing a quick overview to tell you in which areas there may be
  problems
- Summary graphs and tables to quickly assess your data
- Export of results to an HTML based permanent report
- Offline operation to allow automated generation of reports without
  running the interactive application
