JOGL: Complete eager and lazy mapping of GLProfiles in respect to multiple device.

AbstractGraphicsDevice's 'connection' and 'type' attribute is used as a unique key
to map GLProfiles and GLContext's major/profile -> major/minor/profile mapping.

Eager initialiaztion as well as lazy is supported to maintain a simple API.

This is currently tested on X11, where one app display NEWT/GL window and content
on the local and remote device.

See TestRemoteWindow01NEWT.java and TestRemoteGLWindows01NEWT.java
