[10] RFR(M) 8182701: Modify JVMCI to allow Graal Compiler to expose platform MBean

This is not possible to do cleanly. When shall Graal register the bean? On 
first compilation? Then it may enable the whole ManagementFactory 
infrastructure too early and influence results of regular Java programs.

We have seen a benchmark failure due to registering the Graal bean too early. 
The bean registration triggered the java.util.logging infrastructure on and as 
a result the benchmarking test failed. 

The test tried to set "java.util.logging.config.file" property and then it 
assumed it will be used on subsequent call to Logger.getLogger(...). But the 
property was ignored as the Logger was already initialized.

I believe that exactly for this reason there is the PlatformManagedObject & 
co. infrastructure. To not trigger the management infrastructure on 
prematurely. All the HotSpot beans are registered "lazily". As part of 
internal JDK infrastructure we believe Graal should have a way to be part of 
such "lazy initialization" too.

I hope the need for the requested functionality is now clearer.
