JavaFX-Bugs on GraalVM 19.3 (Java 11)

[Kevin Rushforth]

My guess is that these are GraalVM bugs rather than JavaFX bugs, but 
without debugging them it's hard to know for sure.

Johan has spent a fair bit of time looking into running JavaFX on 
GraalVM, so might have some additional insights.

As for bug tracking, I don't have a problem with using the javafx 
component in JBS as long as we use a consistent label to indicate bugs 
that are specific to Graal so we can filter on that label. I might 
suggest "javafx-graal" but am open to others (I don't want to just use 
"graal" since the Graal team already use that as well as a couple other 
labels prefixed with "graal-").
