Hello, AWT Team.

The bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8038999
The fix: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~pchelko/9/8038999/webrev/

After adding HTML data flavors the equals is not symmetric any more. I've also updated the hashCode, to avoid unnecessary hash collisions.
Also I've fixed an annoying broken javadoc  link..

With best regards. Petr.
