Add support for preferred BorderLayout constants [message #1690571]

In the WindowBuilder property pane, the supported constraints for a component inside a panel managed by BorderLayout only include NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, WEST, and CENTER. According to "The Java Tutorials: How to Use BorderLayout," the preferred constants (over NSEW) are now PAGE_START, PAGE_END, LINE_START, and LINE_END, so using any of these results in the Constraints property being blank but set (i.e. "Constraints" is bold), although the design view shows the correct result.

This is probably a rather trivial issue. Reading over the API specification for java.awt.BorderLayout, there might be a difference between the two sets rather than just the names.
