[cp-patches] FYI: Some Swing text additions

[Roman Kennke]

Hi,

I implemented the last missing methods in javax.swing.text.Utilities.
These should then be used by the text components to place the caret when
moving up or down using the arrow keys.

I had to add an abstract method to View, and an implementation of this to
all existing View implementations. Unfortunatly this introduces a couple
of new stubs, since I didn't want to bother implementing them all at
once (it's a difficult method). I have inserted a TODO tag and let them
throw an AssertionError, so we get clear results when using these
methods.
