Subject: [PATCH] Remove redundant Java check from Sys V init

In the Sys V init scripts, we check for Java. This is not needed, since
the same check happens in elasticsearch-env when starting up. Having
this duplicate check has bitten us in the past, where we made a change
to the logic in elasticsearch-env, but missed updating it here. Since
there is no need for this duplicate check, we remove it from the Sys V
init scripts.
