Please remove this change to remove several SecurityManager methods that
have been marked for removal since Java SE 9: checkTopLevelWindow,
checkSystemClipboardAccess, checkAwtEventQueueAccess, and
checkMemberAccess. These methods no longer have any benefit, and
removing them will follow through on the the plan to remove them.
We believe the compatibility risk is fairly low - we have only found a
very small number of custom SecurityManager implementations that are
overriding the methods and using @Override or calling the methods
directly that will need to change their code. See the CSR for more info.
