This makes the screencast robot stable enough to consistently make it thru the entire javax/swing jtreg suite without hanging and also significantly reduces CPU consumption as there is no longer any burning spinners since they are now waiting on related conditions proper.

@antbob Please trigger a test run of GHA. You should be able to do that in https://github.com/antbob/jdk/actions/workflows/main.yml (manual trigger). Thanks!
