openjdk8u211 tag

[Langer, Christoph]

Hi,

I agree, openjdk8u212 would be the more appropriate tag, given that we said we won't do an 8u211 in openjdk.

Maybe we should request an openjdk8u212 version from ops and change hgupdater again for both, jdk8u-dev and jdk8u. As I have "fixed" all the openjdk8u issues to be "openjdk8u211" today, I could do that again for 8u212 ��
