Unable to use the extension without `JavaVM.framework` in macOS

See original GitHub issue

I try to use use the extension in my macOS local environment, but I found that the extension could not be used without JavaVM.framework, a system framework provided by Apple. UnfortunateIy, I deleted JavaVM.framework by accident long time ago and it’s hard to recover… It seems that the extension try to use java_home executable provided by JavaVM.framework to detect and locate the JDK installation directory.

Is there any way to use the extension without JavaVM.framework? Or maybe do I have to reinstall macOS to get JavaVM.framework back?

Environment

Operating System: OS X Yosemite 10.10.5
JDK version: JDK_1.8.0_181 (build 1.8.0_181-b13)
Visual Studio Code version: Version 1.26.1 (1.26.1)
Java extension version: 0.29.0 (July 31rd, 2018)
