You should look at the docs for each version of Java:

7:
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/guides/security/SunProvi
ders.html

8:
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/security/SunProvi
ders.html

If you are using a non-standard "provider" (like one from IBM!), then
you'll have to read their documentation to find out what they provide.

If you are using OpenSSL, then the list of supported cipher suites
will be tied to the version of OpenSSL that you are using.

I would always run with the latest JDK you can tolerate. We are
running Tomcat 8.5.x on OpenJDK 8 in production, but we are running
OpenJDK 11 in dev/test and everything seems just fine. I don't see any
reason why Tomcat 7.0.x wouldn't run on a modern JVM, and you'll get
much better support for newer cipher suites.
