http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~kcr/8156809/webrev.00/ Simple fix to remove the com.sun.javafx.robot and com.sun.javafx.robot.impl packages along with the now-unneeded accessors in Scene and KeyEvent.

This blocks some of the work for JDK-8144585 since there are calls to impl_ methods in some of the accessors.
