It's the singleton instance, referenced from Activator.getDefault(). I
just documented it :)

The addPropertyChangeListener method is called at startup from the
GitLightweightDecorator constructor, in one of the worker threads, and
same thing with removePropertyChangeListener from dispose(). The
broadcastPropertyChange method is called in the main thread every time
the Git decorator preference page is closes.

This is the sync model used by other Eclipse plugins for keeping track
of propertyChangeListeners, for example in the TeamUIPlugin, that's why
I assumed it was OK. I'm perfectly fine with syncrhronizing it though,
similar to repositoryChangeListeners in GitProjectData?
