      Description

        AWTTreeLock is a static lock, which should be used for the cases when we iterates over hierarchy of components, or in the code, which cannot use OtherLock, because it cannot control the order of OtherLock vs AWTTreeLock.

        AWTTreeLock should be used carefully, because if it is used incorrectly it can cause a deadlock. especially if used by the multiple threads via awt library.
