Bug Description

Java language server (jdt.ls, used by vscode, eclipse and other editors) requires src.zip file to show javadocs. The link to this file is missing in openjdk-11-jdk BUT exists in openjdk-11-jdk-headless. The file itself is located in openjdk-11-source package, but the symlink from openjdk-11-jdk-headless points to ../openjdk-11/src.zip instead of ../openjdk-11/lib/src.zip
