[albireo-dev] AWT modal dialog support

I've merged in the support for AWT dialogs from the SAS contribution. SWT input is blocked while any AWT modal dialog is visible. AWT modal dialogs can be parented to an embedded AWT frame, but embedded components are not required.

There is a new menu item in the example application that opens a simple modal dialog.

This code works well on Windows. In earlier version there were some problems under Linux. I'll do more testing under Linux as soon as I can.
