[CAUSEWAY-1138] Not able to use PropertyDomainEvents for custom value types (eg gmap3's Location)

Description

The issue is that the string representation of the object is not converted into its value type, and thus the constructor cannot be located.

In particular, the code in IsisConverterLocator is not called.

~~~
The workaround is to use a more general class as the event type (eg PropertyDomainEvent) and then do an instanceof in the subscriber.
