    Remove the VM option "-server"

    Hi,
    
    If not explicitly defined, the vm option `-server` has been 
    automatically set since Java 5.  The bar for it picking `-server` over 
    `-client` is pretty low by modern standards; 2 CPU and 2GB RAM.
    
    
[http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/vm/server-class.html](http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/vm/server-class.html)
    
    The Oracle ARMv7 HFP does not support `-server`.  So when running on a 
    Raspberry Pi, one must either set JAVA_OPTS or regex replace the 
    relevant lines in launch scripts.
    
    IMO it would be better to remove this _redundant_ flag, as I'd guess 
    there are few systems that would actually require this to be explicitly 
    set.
    
    cheers,
    Caspar
