The light sources are located with wrong coordinates in sub scenes and this causes a different illumination. The wrong coordinates for the light sources come from the fact that the retina pixel scale factors are not used in a SubScene.

@andreas-heger Welcome to the `jfx` project. At a quick glance, the fix looks promising. Have you tested this on Windows with Hi-DPI to make sure there is no impact? Would you be able add an automated test case that fails (only on Mac retina) without the fix and passes (on all platforms) with your fix? Hi-DPI fixes are often tricky to test in an automated test, so if not, we can use the existing manual test.

@nlisker this is the same problem I noted while testing PR #334. Clearly I had forgotten that it was not only a preexisting bug, but a known bug that was already filed. I intend to test this alone and in connection with your PR.
