This stops AWT from overwriting the NSApplicationDelegate (`GlassApplication`) that JavaFX sets during toolkit initialization in the case where the AWT toolkit is used from a JavaFX Application (e.g., when using SwingNode or other Swing functionality), and is necessary in order to safely do the above. It also fixes other problems that can result from the delegate being overwritten.

Notes to reviewers:
* I pushed a commit with debug logging, and then reverted it. If you want to see the debug logging messages, update to the commit just prior to the HEAD commit.
* I recommend to test this on macOS 14 with the latest JDK 22 EA promoted build. Once @honkar-jdk sends the PR for [JDK-8318854](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8318854), it would be helpful to test with that as well.
