I would like to be able to access the chosen pixel format etc, mainly for
logging purposes.  It can be done as the API stands but an accessor on
GLDrawable would be very convenient!

Added getChosenGLCapabilities() to the GLDrawable interface.
Implemented on Windows, Unix and Mac OS X platforms with various
techniques. Attempts to provide correct answers in all cases, even
when the GLCapabilitiesChooser mechanism is not supported. Required
addition of new platform-specific Java code in most cases to either
re-convert existing PIXELFORMATDESCRIPTORS / XVisualInfos, or to query
the pixel format or visual chosen for drawables like pbuffers for
which the chooser mechanism is not (yet) implemented. Tested on
Windows, Solaris/x86, and Mac OS X with on-screen, off-screen and
pbuffer drawables. (Full support for the Java2D/JOGL bridge is not yet
in place; the answer returned from the GLJPanel in this case is
currently the default GLCapabilities, and it is likely that "external"
GLDrawables will return null.)
