<AWT Dev> [8] Review request for CR 7079254 Toolkit eventListener leaks memory

[Petr Pchelko]

Hello.

Thank you for your feedback.

Here is the new version of the fix:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~art/pchelko/7079254/webrev.01/

Changes from the previous one:
	1. Added a test.
	2. Moved creadLightweightDispatcherOnRemove into a synchronized section.

Best, Petr.

The isCleaned field is added to be able to consume events which would be dispatched to a removed component if we did not clean up a reference to it.
