<AWT Dev> [8] Review request for 7117595: ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException in Win32GraphicsEnvironment if display is removed

[Anthony Petrov]

Hi Sergey,

I think that throwing an AWTError is too risky for JDK 8. We might want 
to implement this early in JDK 9 though.

For now, I think returning null is OK. E.g., see 
CGraphicsEnvironment.getDefaultScreenDevice(). It simply returns null if 
there's no screen devices found after a second re-initialization 
attempt. The rest of code (user apps and tests) seem to be happy with 
this implementation.
