jdk needs to be removed and installed again when upgrading because of jre<14 and jre>=15 dependency of jdk.

Here's a oneliner for those who have trouble installing:
mkdir -p /tmp/btw-i-use-jdk && cd /tmp/btw-i-use-jdk && git clone 'https://aur.archlinux.org/jre.git' && git clone 'https://aur.archlinux.org/jdk.git' && cd jre && makepkg && cd ../jdk && makepkg -d && cd .. && sudo pacman -U jre/jre-*.pkg* jdk/jdk-*.pkg*

Here's the script I used for updating this on my various workstations, in case it helps anybody else.
#!/bin/bash
YAY_CACHE=$HOME/.cache/yay
cd $YAY_CACHE/jre
git latest
makepkg
cd $YAY_CACHE/jdk
git latest
makepkg -d
cd $YAY_CACHE
sudo pacman -U ./jdk/jdk-13-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz ./jre/jre-13-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

I think that there shouldn't be that kind of version constraint.
With every single install, I am forced to uninstall previous version of Java 8+ (such as Java 10, 11, 12...) but as far as I can tell, Arch is perfectly capable of handling multiple versions of Java in parallel.

@Trja17 Please see pinned comment on package jre.

Could not satisfy dependencies: installing jre (13-2) breaks dependency 'jre<13' required by jdk

As was made with the java packages in the official repositories, jdk now provides the jre alongside it, and both packages conflict with each other. During the package upgrade to version 22, act accordingly to your needs. For example, if you have both jdk and jre installed, only jdk will be sufficient, as it now also contains the runtime environment, and jre can be uninstalled. If you have only jre installed, no action is required.
