Description
### Expected behavior
If I were to use a certain custom platform for my charts, I'd expect that I'd be able to reuse the same platform instance for all of them based on the flexibility of platform methods and their arguments.
### Current behavior
Right now, if I define a class to be a platform for let's say 20 charts, library will create 20 platform instances in total and that's not very memory-efficient.
See https://github.com/chartjs/Chart.js/blob/master/src/core/core.controller.js#L154
