Workaround fix for JVM Crash Issue while refreshing 'ProblemTreeViewer'

This workaround ensures that the action is performed on the display thread properly. However, the bug still exists in the SWT/JFace which needs to be fixed. Other plugins using `getTreeViewer().refresh()` from `PackageExplorerPart` are prone to crash the JVM as well. Fixes bndtools#4854
