Hello,

Could you review a fix for jdk11, please?

 bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8200353
 webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dmarkov/8200353/webrev.00/

The new mechanism of dead keys detection and processing was introduced by 
JDK-8139189 [1]. According to that changes dead key input is activated by 
WM_KEYDOWN and deactivated by WM_CHAR messages. However the function 
WindowsKeyToJavaChar() (which actually sets the flag deadKeyActive to true) is 
also called from _NativeHandleEvent() and in this case target component doesn't 
receive WM_CHAR message, (i.e. dead key input remains active).
At the same time _NativeHandleEvent() sends character back to the native window 
using WM_AWT_FORWARD_CHAR message. So it is necessary to disable dead key 
input, (i.e. set deadKeyActive to false) when WM_AWT_FORWARD_CHAR is received.

I ran related AWT/Swing regression tests and did not observe any new failures.
 
Thanks,
Dmitry
