Hello,
Please review fix for JDK9:
bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8079640
webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ssadetsky/8079640/webrev.00/
*THE ROOT CAUSE
Component minimum size is limited to Short.MAX_VALUE in GroupLayout.
JDK turtorial
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/layout/group.html tells
that Short.MAX_VALUE is treated as infinite.
But I did not find any reasons in JDK specs why a bigger number cannot
be used.
*SOLUTION
Remove the limitation
*TESTING
Test is added to cover the large component scenario.
Existing GroupLayout tests are passed.
