Fix dependency on Java2 runtime for both Debian and Ubuntu

In Debian, a dependency on 'java-runtime' virtual package may be
satisfied by pre-Java2 JVM [1] which is wrong. According to Debian
policy for Java [2], virtual machines that contain a runtime
conforming to the Java 2 specification should provide java2-runtime
[3] and Java programs must depend on the needed runtime environment
(java1-runtime and/or java2-runtime) [4].

As Jenkins' target is 1.5+, it's better to depend on Java2 JVM [5]
explicitly.

This should also work in Ubuntu as Sun Java5 [6],
Sun Java6 [7] and OpenJDK [8] packages provide 'java2-runtime' too.
