[databinding] ControlDecorationSupport feedback: provide access to the ControlDecoration [message #23073]

When using ControlDecorationSupport, the ControlDecoration is created
internally and not directly accessible. I need to set the ControlDecoration
as data on the Control (for testing purposes) and the only way I can see to
do it is to provide a custom ControlDecorationUpdater that does this on
every update:

protected void update(ControlDecoration decoration, IStatus status) {
decoration.getControl().setData("CONTROL_DECORATION", decoration);
super.update(decoration, status);
}
