Simplify GLDrawableFactory's SharedResource Query Methods; Move WindowsWGLDrawableFactory Quirks to GLRendererQuirks (NeedCurrCtx4ARBPixFmtQueries, NeedCurrCtx4ARBCreateContext); Bug 706: Confine NeedCurrCtx4ARBCreateContext to [Windows, ATI, driver < 12.102.3); Avoid possible NPE @ GLContext.getGLVendorVersionNumber()

- Simplify GLDrawableFactory's SharedResource Query Methods
  - Moving common methods to GLDrawableFactory/GLDrawableFactoryImpl
    while reusing common methods to SharedResourceRunner.Resource.
  - All factories SharedResources impl. SharedResourceRunner.Resource.

- Move WindowsWGLDrawableFactory Quirks to GLRendererQuirks (NeedCurrCtx4ARBPixFmtQueries, NeedCurrCtx4ARBCreateContext)
  - For better maintenance, move the mentioned quirks from the windows factory to our common place,
    being detected within GLContextImpl after each context creation.

- Bug 706: Confine NeedCurrCtx4ARBCreateContext to [Windows, ATI, driver < 12.102.3)
  - Before we added this quirk if [Windows, ATI],
    however, we have hopes that the new drivers will suffice for all
    as tested successful on my test machine (AMD Radeon HD 6300M Series, amd_catalyst_13.5_mobility_beta2).

- Avoid possible NPE @ GLContext.getGLVendorVersionNumber()
  - GLContext.getGLVendorVersionNumber() never returns 'null' but a zero version instance instead!
  - Add API doc.

- Use mixed case names in GLContextImpl.setRendererQuirks(..).
