Description
On Windows platform PlatformFileHandle type is considered as HANDLE (i.e void *) which is specific to Windows flavor of webkit port.
For OpenJFX, type of PlatformFileHandle should be JGObject.

Due to this failure, randomly (at times) the type of FileHandle returned from native webkit will be other than java.io.RandomAccessFile

openjfx13-fix-request: This fix address (a) inconsistent behaviour of PlatformFileHandle on Windows vs Mac OS X and Linux. (b) At times FileHandle returned from native context is will be other than "java.io.RandomAccessFile" which leads to un-expected behaviour.

Please review the following PR https://github.com/javafxports/openjdk-jfx/pull/555 Root Cause : For windows platform "PlatformFileHandle" is considered as void * instead of JGObject. This was due to the Pre-Processor directive of "OS(WINDOWS)" preceded over PLATFORM(JAVA). Due to this the "invalidPlatformFileHandle" was futile and leading to fail of "False" case in "if" condition and FileHandle returned from Native webkit will be other than "java.io.RandomAccessFile" Solution: Make sure PlatformFileHandle is JGObject by limiting "OS(WINDOWS) && !PLATFORM(JAVA)" only for other port of webkit based on Windows OS and not on "java" port.
