<AWT Dev> Toolkit.createCustomCursor throws exceptions

Probably Toolkit.createCustomCursor() should check that the custom 
cursors are supported and getBestCursorSize() return non-empty size. If 
the getBestCursorSize() returns the empty size then createCustomCursor() 
should/could return Cursor.DEFAULT_CURSOR(or empty transparent cursor). 
And this default cursor will be used in DragSource.
