A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
Removing one TreeItem from a TreeTableView changes TreeTableView selectedItem.

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
run the following javafx program:
----------------------------------------------------
package sample;

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.beans.property.ReadOnlyStringWrapper;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.TreeItem;
import javafx.scene.control.TreeTableColumn;
import javafx.scene.control.TreeTableView;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class Main extends Application {

    @Override
    public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception{
        TreeItem<String> rootNode = new TreeItem<String>("Root");
        rootNode.setExpanded(true);
        for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
            rootNode.getChildren().add(new TreeItem<>("Node " + i));
        }
        for (int i = 0; i < 2; i++) {
            TreeItem<String> node = rootNode.getChildren().get(i);
            node.setExpanded(true);
            for (int j = 0; j < 2; j++) {
                node.getChildren().add(new TreeItem<>("Sub Node " + i + "-" + j));
            }
        }

        TreeTableColumn<String, String> column = new TreeTableColumn<>("Nodes");
        column.setCellValueFactory((TreeTableColumn.CellDataFeatures<String, String> p) -> {
            return new ReadOnlyStringWrapper(p.getValue().getValue());
        });
        column.setPrefWidth(200);

        TreeTableView<String> table = new TreeTableView<>(rootNode);
        table.getColumns().add(column);

        int selectIndex = 4; // select "Node 1"
        int removeIndex = 2; // remove "Node 2"
        table.getSelectionModel().select(selectIndex);
        System.out.println("Selected index = " + table.getSelectionModel().getSelectedIndex());
        System.out.println("Selected item = " + table.getSelectionModel().getSelectedItem().getValue());
        table.getRoot().getChildren().remove(removeIndex);
        System.out.println("Selected index = " + table.getSelectionModel().getSelectedIndex());
        System.out.println("Selected item = " + table.getSelectionModel().getSelectedItem().getValue());

        primaryStage.setTitle("Tree Table View Selection");
        primaryStage.setScene(new Scene(table, 300, 275));
        primaryStage.show();
    }


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
Selected index = 4
Selected item = Node 1
Selected index = 4
Selected item = Node 1
ACTUAL -
Selected index = 4
Selected item = Node 1
Selected index = 3
Selected item = Sub Node 0-1

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
