Catalog event subsystem should protect itself from listeners throwing exceptions
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOS-2840
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-2840
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Configuration
            Reporter: Andrea Aime
            Assignee: Andrea Aime
             Fix For: 2.0.x


GWC listens to the catalog and throws runtime exceptions on occasion, such as:

{code}
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException

org.geowebcache.layer.TileLayerDispatcher.update(TileLayerDispatcher.java:145)

        ... 69 more
{code}

The event firing code should log these exceptions but should not die, the code 
should protected itself from rogue listeners.
The fix is simple, add a try/catch inside the loop so that the code is 
protecetd and other listeners can still function (going to implement this now 
cause I cannot do much with GWC killing all my attempts at saving).
