Crash on Java 9

See original GitHub issue

Hello! I run JFoenix demo on Java 9 and got this:

In Java 9, all com.sun.* classes are inaccessible, and most of them are repackaged, including com.sun.javafx.* Could you fix it? Even though I guess it is hard to rewrite JFoenix to support Java 9, which is a huge project.
