While thinking about this issue, I also noticed a thinko regarding the
inhibitSizePropagationToAWT mechanism. Namely, it did not consider the
case that an SWT layout operation, on behalf of a SwingControl, could
set the size of other SwingControl. But this is precisely what happens in
the new RelayoutExampleView.

The fix is to generalize inhibitSizePropagationToAWT as follows.
