I tried with both
<https://download.java.net/java/GA/jdk14.0.2/205943a0976c4ed48cb16f1043c5c647/12/GPL/openjdk-14.0.2_osx-x64_bin.tar.gz>
available from <http://jdk.java.net/14/> and with
<https://download.java.net/java/GA/jdk15/779bf45e88a44cbd9ea6621d33e33db1/36/GPL/openjdk-15_osx-x64_bin.tar.gz>
available from <http://jdk.java.net/15/>:  If you unpack those *.tar.gz in
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/, recent LibreOffice 7.0.1.2 finds them just
fine on the Advanced options page.  (And with upcoming
<https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/103212> "Manually select JDK outside
/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines on macOS" it will even possible to unpuck
those *.tar.gz in some other place, and then manually add them on the Advanced
options tab page.)

If you have problems with JDK installations provided by Homebrew, I suspect
those have, for some reason, a layout that is not recognized by LibreOffice
(see e.g. JvmfwkUtil_isLoadableJVM in
jvmfwk/plugins/sunmajor/pluginlib/util_cocoa.mm).  But I at least have no idea
about Homebrew, and am not going to install it on my Mac to find out.
