JPopupMenu should show mnemonics when it is shown in response to VK_CONTEXT_MENU

    Description

      Windows L&F doesn't show mnemonics in menus by default, to see them you need to press Alt,
      but this doesn't work for popup menus since Alt closes them. And this is usability
      issue :(
      I've tried native apps and found that WindowsXP shows no mnemonics in popups if they are shown
      in response to mouse, but it shows mnemonics if popup is shown by "context menu" key.
      The same functionality should be implemented in Swing, if user reister popup menu using
      JComponent.setComponentPopupMenu().
