>> 5. EventListenerManager also stores the JavaEventListener mapped with DOMWindow.
>> 6. When Event listener explicitly removed , JavaEventListener is being forwarded to EventListenerManager to clear the listener.
>> 7. When WebView goes out of scope, EventListenerManager will de-registered all the event listeners based on the ref counts attached with WebView DOMWindow.
