Java Web Start windows launched from browser are still grouped even if different

[Marco Trevisan (Treviño)]

Fix for bug #1098186 does not work when javaws applications are launched from browser.

[Impact]

Applications launched via Java Webstart are grouped under the same icon still, in case the application is launched from browser instead of command line.

[Test Case]

Download different jnlp's (for example from http://is.gd/lGDr0Z) and launch them, directly from browser this time: they should not be grouped together if they're different applications. Automated tests are included into the diff.

[Regression Potential]

Compared to the earlier bug fix, this completion of the fix is much smaller and largely the diff is about the tests.

Tested successfully on precise with precise-proposed enabled by launching the Java Music Player and jDiskReport directly from Firefox, resulting in separate, different icons for both.
