Hi, Semyon.
It will be good to dig into the history of GroupLayout and understand
why this was constrained, note that tutorial should be updated also.

Hello,
Please review fix for JDK9:
bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8079640
webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ssadetsky/8079640/webrev.00/
*THE ROOT CAUSE
Component minimum size is limited to Short.MAX_VALUE in GroupLayout.
JDK turtorial
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/layout/group.html
tells that Short.MAX_VALUE is treated as infinite.
But I did not find any reasons in JDK specs why a bigger number cannot
be used.
*SOLUTION
Remove the limitation
*TESTING
Test is added to cover the large component scenario.
Existing GroupLayout tests are passed.
