Details:

The source distribution includes the java source files under
scripts/java/org/octave as well as octave.jar containing the compiled java
.class files.

If Octave is configured without java, those files are not included in the
distribution tarball.

1) Should octave.jar be included in EXTRA_DIST? It's built on "make" and
removed on "make clean", is there any benefit to including it in the source
distribution?

If yes, then we should error if "make dist" is run when java is disabled.

If no, then we should delete it from EXTRA_DIST and add the .java source files
to the distribution so we get the same source tarball with or without java.
