Allow phonegap to share the application eventbus

[GoogleCodeExporter]

It would be nice that we could set the phonegap eventbus when initializing the 
instance.
This would allow that anywhere in the app we could listen to phonegap events 
like menu button etc.

An easy way could be to overload the initialize method:
phoneGap.initializePhoneGap(10000, eventBus);

Another thing is that phonegap is using the deprecated namespace for the 
EventBus com.google.gwt.event.shared.EventBus instead of 
com.google.web.bindery.event.shared.EventBus

I can send a patch if you want.

We could definitely pass the eventbus down inthe the event module and fire 
events directly on it. But I was enable / disable this with an option. 
Sometimes you don`t want those events on your global event bus.

A Patch is always appreciated (or a github pull request)

Sent the pull request. With the patch it is possible to use this syntax:

eventBus.addHandler(PhoneGapAvailableEvent.TYPE, myPhoneGapAvailableHandler);
eventBus.addHandler(PhoneGapTimeoutEvent.TYPE, myPhoneGapTimeoutHandler)
eventBus.addHandler(BackButtonPressedEvent.TYPE, myBackButtonPressedHandler);
eventBus.addHandler(MenuButtonPressedEvent.TYPE, myMenuButtonPressedHandler);

// Create phonegap instance (could be done with Gin if the case)
PhoneGap phoneGap = GWT.create(PhoneGap.class)
phoneGap.setEventBus(eventBus);
// Initialize it
phoneGap.initializePhoneGap(10000);
