Create a regression test for [JDK-4618767](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-4618767)

Issue identified in [JDK-4618767](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-4618767):
Typing a letter while a JList has focus now makes the selection jump to the first/next node/item whose text starts with that letter even though that letter is accompanied by modifier keys such as ALT or CTRL.

Fix:
Only enable JList letter navigation when the user
doesn't press any modifier keys such as ALT or CTRL.

Testing:
I have verified this test with JDK 1.4.0 and JDK 1.4.1 .
The issue is reproducible using the test with JDK 1.4.0 , where the bug was originally reported and the test passed in JDK 1.4.1 where the issue was fixed.
I have tested it in Linux, Mac and Windows platforms multiple times and it passed everywhere.
