Since getApplicationContext() was originally not intended to be part of the public API, its Javadoc is intentionally sparse. However, since it is actually a public API used by third parties, this commit improves the documentation for getApplicationContext() by pointing out that invoking the method actually results in the context being eagerly loaded, which may not be desired. This commit also updates the Javadoc for supportsParameter() along the same lines. Closes gh-35764
