Description
**Task (REQUIRED):**
Update the editor to [[JavaFX 27](https://github.com/openjdk/jfx/blob/master/doc-files/release-notes-27.md)](https://github.com/openjdk/jfx/blob/master/doc-files/release-notes-27.md) and the latest JDK 25.x maintenance release for Defold 1.14.0. The JDK update should address the increased memory usage reported in [[#13100](https://github.com/defold/defold/issues/13100)](https://github.com/defold/defold/issues/13100); verify this using the provided reproduction project.
**Expected outcome (REQUIRED):**
- Updated JavaFX and JDK dependencies included in Defold 1.14.0.
- Editor builds and tests pass on Windows, macOS, and Linux, including rendering checks for JavaFX 27’s default Metal pipeline on macOS.
- Memory usage measurements confirm whether the update resolves #13100, with any remaining issue documented for follow-up.
