Support loading library from multiple classloaders #164

Closed mrjfalk closed 5 years ago

In applications using a plugin concept where JavaFX is loaded on one classloader and then the plugin is loaded on child classloaders JavaFX will crash due to trying to add the same event name multiple times.

By adding a random UUID to the event name we can avoid these collisions. This solution is also used in e.g. ControlsFX (https://bitbucket.org/controlsfx/controlsfx/pull-requests/686/eventtype-names-use-uuid-suffix-to-prevent/diff)
