Java FX dark theme

[Sebastian Stenzel]

The tray icon is (imho) the last important components that is missing in OpenJFX for desktop applications. At the moment you need to use AWT or native libs.

You can of course create the icon without a menu and implement an undecorated stage with custom styling that you position next to the icon when the user clicks it.
