8036915: setLocationRelativeTo stopped working in Ubuntu 13.10 (Unity)

[satyenme]

Backporting "JDK-8159460: On Ubuntu Unity, problem with java/awt/Window/FindOwner/FindOwnerTest" and "JDK-8036915: setLocationRelativeTo stopped working in Ubuntu 13.10 (Unity)". Backporting to clear the way for https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8305825, which is pulled in by oracle, soft-requires this patch, and which solves a similar UI bug on the default Gnome UI.

JDK-8036915 and has a dependency on UNITY_COMPIZ_WM defined by JDK-8159460. Grouping these two changes together and omitting the change to jdk/test/java/awt/Window/FindOwner/FindOwnerTest.html (which isn't present in JDK 8).

For completeness tested the SetLocSwingDlgTest.java test on JDK-8036915 with Ubuntu Unity (testing with 24.10) to confirm passing with patch and failing without patch.
