Description
This way you can have a cross platform project where addons which are Linux only or Windows only can exist in the project's addons.make and if the addon isn't supported on a platform the PG doesn't add it.
We would prob make an empty define mean all for backwards compatibility but if it is defined it could be limited to just a few platforms eg for ofxAzureKinect
PLATFORMS=linux64,vs,msys2

Research direction
Start with addons_config.mk and the project generator's handling of a project's addons.make. Trace how addons are currently added, then define and apply the PLATFORMS behavior described, preserving the proposed empty-value compatibility rule. Done means unsupported addons are omitted while supported addons remain included for the listed platforms.
