I'm not sure this is possible. OpenJDK has a copy of tzdata plus additional timezones [1] kept to preserve the compatibility with old versions of Java. > This is mostly equivalent to 3 since the libtzdbtools-java package > would pull in -headless to run the code.

A separate package simply avoids installing a useless file (the tzdb compiler) on every system with the JRE. Nobody needs this compiler, it's just a build dependency for tzdata.
