Updating the epubcheck port

[Chris Jones]

Agreed. Use macports openjdk ports, as then you make no assumptions on what the user may or may not have instead.

To do this, just use the java PortGroup, as it is designed to check what is installed, and if it makes the requirements will use it, otherwise will install the require openjdk port.
