In "Installing Java" instructions, minimize the length of the onramp. #395

Description

@jtigger

The Installing Java instructions should seek to minimize the number of steps and the number of concepts a new-to-the-track practitioner needs to learn to get to coding.

An example of this came up in #295. Linking to the Chocolatey site for installation instructions was tantamount to tossing the practitioner in the deep end of the pool; those instructions were not context-free and not easy to follow. In contrast, we found a simple one-liner that has been verified (#348) on the latest version of the OS (and had been previously tested on earlier versions).
