Subject: Doc: OpenGL 3.1 .. 3.2 profile clarification

GLX_ARB_create_context: Add 3.2 context
WGL_ARB_create_context: Add 3.2 context

Add: Trying to use 3.2 core profile creation for GL3,
disabled by default.
(Disabled per default due to a freezing JVM on Linux
_after_ the Java main thread and Hotspot finishes.)
Experimental: You may try '3.2 core profile creation'
setting the java system property 'jogl.GLContext.3_2'.
