<AWT Dev> [9] Review request : 8038919, Requesting focus to a modeless dialog doesn't work on Safari

[Anton V. Tarasov]

Hi Mikhail,

Can we get rid of that "instance of"? I think it makes sense to create a new LWEmbeddedFramePeer 
class with toFront overriden. Then we can do all the verifications gracefully and call 
platformWindow.toFrontIgnoringOtherApps() (new method). I would also rename 
LWCToolkit.activateApplication to match its native API call.

What do you think?

Regards,
Anton.
