Replace usage of internal SWT TypedListener and SWTEventListener #583

The org.eclipse.swt.widgets.TypedListener should be considered an internal class (as the doc states) and leaks the class SWTEventListener which also resides in an internal package.

Leverage new methods introduced in eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.swt#1112 in order to avoid the usage of that two classes. I don't know if there is a specific backwards compatibility policy in Nebula regarding SWT, but at the moment the new methods are only available in Eclipse I-builds. I guess therefore this change cannot be applied immediately.
In order to demonstrate it works I changed temporarily changed the target-platform of the build.

@lcaron could you please have a look at this one?

@Phillipus for your information (if you want to review this too, please do so).

Yes it will at least require a new SWT release

Yes.

I also want to mention that, even if SWT will eventually deprecate and (re-)move the SWTEventListener and TypedListener it will not happen before at least the two year deprecation period has passed.
So it would also be possible to await the actual removal before submitting this PR (although I wouldn't mind to submit it earlier :) ) in order to avoid using tricks.

FYI, replacing the release train site with the Platform's I-builds site is going to reduce the available set of 3rd party bundles significantly, leading to resolution failures.

Yes I noticed that as well. But since I assumed it will take some time until this is submitted anyway and it was temporary I was lazy to look up how the repos are set up.
But now I checked it and it should work. :)

After 4.32 M1 release you could change it to https://download.eclipse.org/releases/2024-06/?

Yes that would be possible too, but would then later have to be changed back, if the latest is generally desired.

FYI, during the end of the last release cycle SimRel produced and now maintains this:

https://download.eclipse.org/releases/milestone/

as requested here:

eclipse-simrel/simrel.build#286

This site has the advantage that it tracks milestones and release candidates so that any problems are noticed before the release rather than after the release.

When the method is officially released, we can take it.
