<Swing Dev> Focus on image icons are not visible in javaws cache with high contrast mode

[Sean Chou]

   It seems the black color for focus is set intentionally. If we set it to
"ControlTextColor ",
the focus color may become red in above testcase, that's not what we want.
   And I changed the color for all items listed with "3D object", the focus
remains black;
maybe windows just uses "black" for focus color in normal mode, and another
color for
high contrast mode.

   However, the original patch posted is not right in this scenario. I'll
modify it. How about
just uses white for high contrast mode ? As it simply uses black for normal
mode.
