`JTree.updateUI` calculate item sizes from the cell renderer, but it doesn't call `updateUI `on the cell renderer until afterwards. This leads to incorrect size calculation, which is observed when we switch from one L&F to another where it is seen that all tree items are slightly too cramped, with too little space between rows and text are abbreviated.
Fix is to ensure `JTree.updateUI` update the cell renderer before updating the UI. 
CI testing is ok..
