Loads and returns the classes defined in the properties files. If the system property
"rome.pluginmanager.useloadclass" is set to true then classLoader.loadClass will be used to
load classes (instead of Class.forName). This is designed to improve OSGi compatibility.

@return array containing the classes defined in the properties files.
@throws java.lang.ClassNotFoundException thrown if one of the classes defined in the
properties file cannot be loaded and hard failure is ON.
