Remarks

Implements the children method as per the specification in Preferences#childrenNames().

This implementation obtains this preference node's lock, checks that the node has not been removed, constructs a TreeSet initialized to the names of children already cached (the children in this node's "child-cache"), invokes #childrenNamesSpi(), and adds all of the returned child-names into the set. The elements of the tree set are dumped into a String array using the toArray method, and this array is returned.
