Description
ActionListeners on JRadioButtons don't get notified when selection is changed 
with arrow keys. If radio buttons are part of a button group, using the arrow keys to select a 
radio button does not fire action listeners.

See this closed bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-6314014 

To reproduce this, run the RadioButtonDemo: 
https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/examples/zipfiles/components-RadioButtonDemoProject.zip 
Use the up and down arrows to change the selection.  Note that the selection 
appears to change, but the picture doesn't change until the space bar is   
pressed. 

Arrows should either just change the focus without changing  the selection, 
or the selection should fire action listeners.

Fix request (13u) I'd like to port it to 13u as well. Patch applies cleanly.

Requested 8u262. Default to critical was due to Oracle JDK 8u251 parity.

Right, but I don't see any case for making this a critical fix for 8u252. Please target 8u262.

Fix Request (OpenJDK 8u): Please approve this fix for OpenJDK 8u for Oracle JDK 8u parity. The JDK 11u patch did not apply cleanly. Minor touch ups in the test were needed. Test fails before, passes after patch. I've sent it for review and it got approved by Aleksey Shipilev.

Fix request (11u) Requesting this backport for Oracle 11.0.7 parity. Applies clean.
