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.

README

Logisim is an educational tool for designing and simulating digital
logic circuits.

Features:

* It is free! (Logisim is open-source (GPL).)

* It runs on any machine supporting Java 1.4 or later; special
  versions are released for MacOS X and Windows. The cross-platform
  nature is important for students who have a variety of home/dorm
  computer systems.

* The drawing interface is based on an intuitive toolbar. Color-coded
  wires aid in simulating and debugging a circuit.

* The wiring tool draws horizontal and vertical wires, automatically
  connecting to components and to other wires. It's very easy to draw
  circuits!

* Completed circuits can be saved into a file, exported to a GIF file,
  or printed on a printer.

* Circuit layouts can be used as "subcircuits" of other circuits,
  allowing for hierarchical circuit design.

* Included circuit components include inputs and outputs, gates,
  multiplexers, arithmetic circuits, flip-flops, and RAM memory.

* The included "combinational analysis" module allows for conversion
  between circuits, truth tables, and Boolean expressions.
