Parse distribution from ASDF #738
Description
Description:
When the user specifies the distribution in an ASDF .tool-versions file (e.g. java corretto-1.2.3) then don't require the distribution to be restated explicitly in a redundant distribution field in the setup-java GitHub Actions workflow configuration block.
Justification:
DRY principle and better integration with ADSF and other modern version managers.

Tracked under the epic #1048 (infer Java version/distribution from project files), which groups the related file-based detection requests for consistent design. This issue stays open as the specific sub-request.

Resolved by #1084 — setup-java now infers the JDK distribution from the asdf
.tool-versionsvendor prefix (e.g.java temurin-17.0.3+7), matching the existing.sdkmanrcbehavior, sodistributionno longer needs to be restated. Merged tomain; ships in the next release. Closing as completed.
