      = The redhat.java extension is failing on IBM Power and IBM Z

      Currently, the link:https://open-vsx.org/extension/redhat/java[Language Support for Java(TM) by Red Hat] extension cannot be loaded in Microsoft Visual Studio Code - Open Source on IBM Power and IBM Z. This extension includes an embedded `x86_64` JRE 17, which does not run on other architectures, and the `.vsix` file includes a `extension.vsixmanifest` file which sets `TargetPlatform="linux-x64"`, so it is ignored on non-matching architectures.

      As a result, trying to install the Test Runner for Java or other extensions that depend on the Language Support for Java(TM) by Red Hat extension will cause an error to be shown: *The 'redhat.java' extension is not available in {prod} with Microsoft Visual Studio Code - Open Source IDE*.

      There is currently no workaround for this issue.

      Description of problem:

      Reproduced with airgap Dev Spaces 3.3.0:
              -  Index image v4.11: brew.registry.redhat.io/rh-osbs/iib:390164
              -  airgap OCP 4.11

              - "Quarkus" extension
             -  "Tools for MicroProfile" extenstion
             - "Test Runner for Java" extension

      The 'redhat.java' extension is not available in Red Hat OpenShift Dev Spaces with Microsoft Visual Studio Code - Open Source IDE for Linux 64 bit.

      Other recommended extensions had been installed successfully:
              -   "Debugger for Java" extension

      Issue hasn't been reproduced in online OCP 4.10 cluster.

      A similar issue was observed on s390x trying to switch to the pre-release version of redhat.java extension (v1.14.2022121311). On start of the workspace, v.1.12.0 is enabled but throws an error when trying to switch to v1.14.2022121311:

      Can't install pre-release version of 'redhat.java' extension
      because it is not compatible with the current version of
      Red Hat OpenShift Dev Spaces with Microsoft Visual
      Studio Code - Open Source IDE (version 1.74.0).
