JRE 8u161 made JMenu.insert() MUCH slower on OSX.
This exposed a bug lurking there for years; in fact the menu entries were rebuilt every time since JMenu.getComponent() returns an empty list.
The correct function is JMenu.getMenuComponents()
In the meantime, also remove sketchbookMenu and examplesMenu deletion on board change; only their content needs to be updated, not the container itself.

Fixes #7924

If you find any problem that only happens with Teensy, but doesn't occur with official Arduino boards, please report it on the PJRC Forum, not here. I'll reply there and work on a fix.

This tracker is only for Arduino issues.

And just to confirm, there is an unrelated Teensyduino bug where the Ports menu is experiencing lag on some Macintosh computers. I am working on fix. The last thing I want to do is cause confusion or extra work for the Arduino developers, in this unfortunate situation of entirely different issues that manifest with similar symptoms.
