When trying to create off-screen context in Windows, it fails with  "Unable to set 
pixel format" exception.

This is probably due to JOGL trying to request a double-buffered pixel format
for the offscreen surface. To prevent applications from having to explicitly set
the DoubleBuffered property of the GLCapabilities to false, the GLCanvas now
clones the incoming GLCapabilities and disables double-buffering before
requesting the underlying GLContext.
