Supports fonts with Apple Platform Name Tags

[Phil Race]

Some comments :

1) I don't see your name as having signed the SCA. Patches cannot be 
accepted until you do.
2) Read the open jdk developers guide on how to submit patches.
3) Once you've done that, discuss this enhancement first on 
2d-dev at openjdk.java.net
      jdk6-dev is a general alias to do with the jdk7-based backport to 
create openjdk6
     New features should start in the appropriate technology group of 
the main line  project

   For this specific proposal there may be other considerations

  1) I'm a bit surprised how large this patch is. I have a version of 
the code that I modified
     for JavaFX which needs to run on Mac and accepts mac names. I don't 
remember it as
    needing more than an extremely minimal change and I was at some 
point going to
    pull this back into openjdk anyway.

  2) There's a mac port project underway and it'll use some apple 
donated code.

I'd want to look at both of those first.
