JavaFX Toolkit and Pipeline details

[Kevin Rushforth]

Most of these are internal details that we would not want to provide via 
public API, but knowing whether it is running as HW versus SW is 
helpful, as long as it is exposed as some sort of capability rather than 
a specific pipeline name.

Can you log a new JIRA (Tweak) for this?

If a customer complains that my app is flickering, or slow, etc. and I can grab this information and see that hardware acceleration is not enabled for some reason, that would be helpful.
