Data URIs also work for user-agent stylesheets. I added documentation to each of the methods.

> Why do you need to add this public method to the API? I don't see any discussion as to why JavaFX applications need it. It looks like it is just being used internally by `StyleManager`. Unless there is a compelling reason to add this to the API, you will need to make this method package-scope and use an accessor to access it from `StyleManager`.
I don't know why JavaFX applications would need this API. But the argument should be the same argument as for `loadBinary(URL)`, which is also only used internally by `StyleManager`. I think that this isn't opening up any new effective API surface, because it's arguably just another overload of the existing API.
