…der#633 For the longest time, screenshots on Linux were done by capturing parts of the window where a given widget was located. This approach is inherently incompatible with constraints imposed by Wayland, resulting in a blank preview. Instead of working on the window, we directly work on the widget (similar to the SWT implementation). This approach requires the widget to be fully rendered. Note that this new implementation is only available with Java 24 or higher. Closes eclipse-windowbuilder#633
