I think the icon distortion observed on Win10 and 11 might be due to race 
condition between update triggered by WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING and the re-addition 
of tray icons when taskbar is reloaded (occurs when DPI changes)

Whenever DPI changes, the taskbar is reloaded and all the existing tray icons 
are re-added by `WmTaskbarCreated()` in `awt_TrayIcon.cpp`. Here is the link to 
the relevant doc: [Taskbar creation and 
reload](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/shell/taskbar#taskbar-creation-notification)
 

**The reason for distortion:** 
When update to tray icons (creating new scaled icon and deleting the old one) 
is called on `WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING`, it might create race condition - updating 
the tray icon and deleting the previous ones while the  WmTaskbarCreated is 
trying to re-add the icons at the same time.

To overcome the race condition, I have removed the call to 
**UpdateTrayIconHandler()**  on WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING and added it when taskbar 
gets reloaded and before `WmTaskbarCreated` is called.

When tested on Win10, it works as well. 

@aivanov-jdk Can you please test on Win10 & 11 with the new fix and let me know 
if it works?
