        When using the extension download protocol (used for downloading extension jnlp files), the list of known-platforms is added as an arg.
        This is obtained from JREInfo.getKnownPlatforms and will repeat the same version unnecessarily.

        The list of known-platforms is supposed to be the list of java versions that an installer extension could run on, so we may wish (given recent security tightening) to restrict it to just the latest.
        The arg is not used by component extensions.
