(4/27) 316 - Swing Installer position

Hi, the Swing installer appears in the middle of the screen, but if there are two screens, the middle is between them.
This patch fixes the problem.
The problem exists in 4.4pre1 and 4.3.1

When it's in the middle of the screen, is it visible ? Because I had a problem at work when someone was running an X11 server on a laptop + screen, resulting in a non-rectangular shape (a small rectangle on the left of a big rectangle). The application was then totally inaccessible, since it appeared in the top-left "hole".
I had to explicitly position the application in the middle of the screen, so that my co-worker could drag it on one of the screens.

My point being there is no good positioning...

It is accessible, the problem is that when getting screen bounds with the actual method the two screens are considered as one with double width so the dialog is cut hand hae one half on both screen
