Also, specific to this particular algorithm the signature type can be EdDSA for both BC and SunJCE, regardless of if the key type is EdDSA (SunJCE) or Ed25519 or Ed448 (BC).  Creating a signature with algorithm EdDSA and the use of the key from either provider will perform a signature of the proper kind.
