<AWT Dev> Proposal:AIX's CDE/MWM support

[Ichiroh Takiguchi]

Hello Phil.

Webrev.zip file is stored into
   http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~aleonard/AIX_GUI/webrev-aixgui.zip

Test programs are also stored:
No testcase is available for FontUtilities.java and XDecoratedPeer.java.

MotifColorUtilities.java
   http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~aleonard/AIX_GUI/SystemColorTest2.java
Run SystemColorTest2, system colors should be displayed
AIX sample is
   http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~aleonard/AIX_GUI/aix_systemcolor.txt

XWM.java
   http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~aleonard/AIX_GUI/XWMTest1.java
On AIX CDE, isMotif and isCDE were true.
On AIX MWM, every entry is false.

XWindowPeer.java
   http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~aleonard/AIX_GUI/JFrameTest.java
On AIX CDE, click inside of "Non-Focusable" window (not window frame).
Window focus should not be changed because of "click on focus" feature.
But input focus is moved to "Non-Focusable" window.
