[arch-general] shouldn't the java-sun package be named java-oracle?

hi,

the binaray version of java has been in repo with the name jre and jdk
for a long time. i noticed that a split package of java-sun is now in
the community repo.

i don't know if java-sun is newly created or has been there also for a
long time. anyway, the -sun suffix is not appropriate as the upstream
java is branded oracle now.

i have been using openjdk since the beginning. so, basically, i
pointed this out just for curiosity's sake.

best regards,
