[Libguestfs] [PATCH] java: Don't try to set -source 1.5 in options.

[Richard W.M. Jones]

There was some code in configure.ac dating back to 2009
(commit b9014d6a0da8b2b3a76c4ab51fab2773fe7480b2) which attempted to
add the javac option `-source 1.5'.  I don't think this code ever
worked.

However, if -source 1.5 is added, then you get this warning:

warning: [options] bootstrap class path not set in conjunction with -source 1.5
warning: [options] source value 1.5 is obsolete and will be removed in a future release
warning: [options] To suppress warnings about obsolete options, use -Xlint:-options.

and that's very hard to reliably fix because you have to know somehow
a magic path.  For more details, see:

https://blogs.oracle.com/darcy/entry/how_to_cross_compile_for

Anyway, remove the voodoo from configure.ac.

As a side effect, this allows you to set the EXTRA_JAVAC_FLAGS
environment variable before ./configure with any extra javac flags
that you want.
