TreeTableView's selectedItems reports changes that include null items when when a TreeItem is collapsed.

    Description

      As a TreeTableView item is expanded and collapsed, the change notifications for selectedItems can sometimes contain null items. It looks like the changes are derived from selected indexes which creates change notifications that don't always make sense.

      The below example also includes a case that I find confusing. The notification for childOne being removed from selectedItems doesn't make sense since it was never selected. Another issue related to having more accurate change notifications is https://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-37360.

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. Run the below example.
      2. Select item "three".
      3. Expand item "two".
      4. Collapse item "two".

      You'll get the following output:

      --- initial selection on program start ---
      Change event...
       Change:
        Added: one
       
      -- caused by selecting item "three"--
      Change event...
       Change:
        Removed: one
        Added: three
