<AWT Dev> Taking screenshots on x11 composite desktop produce wrong result

[Semyon Sadetsky]

Hello Mario,

Seems X11 call would be the best solution for AWT Robot screenshots 
under Linux. I'm ready to approve it as a default solution.
But it seems to me better to preserve the current GTK dependent code as 
a kind of alternative solution for platforms where GTK is better 
supported. Is it reasonable for you?
