Bug 1038 - Allow skipping detection of certain GLProfiles: Skip 'ARB_create_context' context creation extension via property 'jogl.disable.openglarbcontext'; ...

Only allow the exclusions if platform OS is not OSX:
  - jogl.disable.openglcore
  - jogl.disable.openglarbcontext

Since on OSX they are known to work reliable and there is not other method
if receiving a higher GL profile than core and ARB.

This also removes the restrictions on X11 and Windows,
where profiles >= GL3 must be created using ARB_create_context.
Hence this is allowed now.
