[JENKINS-59051] Tool type "jgit" does not have an install of "jgit" configured

The Declarative Directive Generator gives this for using a configured JGit tool

tools {
  jgit 'jgit'
}

However, it doesn't actually work

Tool type "jgit" does not have an install of "jgit" configured - did you mean "null"?

The same happens for the Apache HTTP variant.

Reproduziere die Ausgabe des Declarative Directive Generator mit einem konfigurierten JGit-Tool und dem Snippet { jgit 'jgit' }, und vergleiche sie anschließend mit dem gemeldeten Fehler wegen fehlender Installation. Prüfe die entsprechende Implementierung und Testabdeckung von workflow-basic-steps-plugin für JGit- und Apache-HTTP-Tools; abgeschlossen ist die Aufgabe, wenn beide generierten Deklarationen konfigurierte Installationen ohne den Fehler auflösen.
