Bug#849419: libopenjfx-java: Description should clarify libopenjfx-java is not automatically on classpath without pkg openjfx

That makes sense and I don't have an issue with that; I only want it to be
clear in the description what package I have to install/depend on. Copying
what you've said or something similar into the two package descriptions
would be ideal.
