Adds Applet-listener-a with Applet-listener-b and returns the resulting multicast listener.
Params:

Params:

Returns the resulting multicast listener after removing the old listener from listener-l. If listener-l equals the old listener OR listener-l is null, returns null. Else if listener-l is an instance of AppletEventMulticaster then it removes the old listener from it. Else, returns listener l.
