RFR: 8285503: SwingNodeDnDMemoryLeakTest::testSwingNodeMemoryLeak fails sometimes

Root cause: The test unreliability comes from the 250ms sleep between `System.gc()` calls.
Other system tests such as `TabPaneHeaderLeakTest`, `AccordionTitlePaneLeakTest` and `ShapeViewOrderLeakTest` etc sleep for 500ms between `System.gc()` calls.

Fix:
- Increased the sleep time to 500ms between `System.gc()` calls.
- Reduced the number of SwingNodes by half as an additional step towards making the test lighter.

Testing: This test used to fail on my macBook all the time if ran as part of a full system test run. I executed full test runs 5 times with above changes and no failure was observed.
