[9] API review request: 8090585: Provide an official API to start the JavaFX platform

[Ali Ebrahimi]

Hi,
I know concerns here, but I think PlatformImpl.startup() and
Platform.startup() should have same behavior from caller's POW.
So I think if we can not have default behavior(duplicate calls) for public
API so please change method name.
My suggestions: Platform.safeStartup() or Platform.startPlatform or
Platform.start
