dev: Remove unused system pointer in the Platform base class

Browse source 
The Platform base class contains a pointer to an instance of the
System which is never initialized. This can lead to subtle bugs since
some architecture-specific platform implementations contain their own
system pointer which is normally used. However, if the platform is
accessed through a pointer to its base class, the dangling pointer
will be used instead.
