This is a long awaited feature that has been requested years ago.
Fontconfig finally added the support needed to make it happen, so here
it is.
I added a fontconfig query to look for similar fonts in case we loaded a
font from eet/edje/file(no fontconfig). This now works quite well.
Still missing: if you load a bold/italic/whatever font directly (set the file)
without putting ":weight=bold" you will not get run-time emboldenment if
only non-bold fonts are found.
This unfortunately depends on very recent fontconfig version (#ifed out
when unavailable), so only people with fontconfig >= 2.11 will enjoy
this feature.
this changes the internal encoding of font glyphs in evas to use 4bit
uncompressed if small, or 4bit rle (run length encoded) if larger.
this caves at least 50% of memory on fonts - and more if bigger. with
large fonts (40-80pixel size) we can save in the region of 80% of
memory used for glyphs. this also happesn to allow speedups in
rendering too.
This patch should make us get a reference on images, maps and glyphs
which are sent in a command to the render thread. Before we were doing
some useless ref and unref operations.

This is in preparation for threaded render landing: the render thread will
hold a reference to a text object's glyphs while it hasn't been rendered
yet (and will drop that reference after drawing). This changes the internal
API a little bit (evas_common_font_rgba_draw() now takes an Evas_Glyph_Array
instead of an Evas_Text_Props).
SVN revision: 81183
This patch refactors common code for font draws - so that it can be used
by other engines and *threaded* X11.

I've tested make -j 3 install and it works nicely
I've tested expedite with software and opengl xlib,
and it works. Not tested other engines, so please
report any problems (engines or other) on the ML.
TODO: examples and tests, I'll add them later
ISSUE: Eina_Unicode size check. It indirectly depends on
eina_config.h, which is created at the end of the
configure script. So its size is always 0. I don't
know how that size is used, so I can't do a lot,
for now.
