* Adding a remote desktop interface that operates on app_server drawing
primitives by providing a RemoteDrawingEngine and a RemoteHWInterface.
Not really optimized yet, still a bit WIP.
* Adding corresponding infrastructure like a blocking ring buffer and network
sender/receiver that are attached to the buffers to feed/drain them as well
as a RemoteMessage helper that provides a message based interface.
* Adding target screen concept to request an app to be run on a specific screen.
It's controlled by the TARGET_SCREEN environment variable which is added on
the app side and sent to the app_server.
* Right now only remote target screens are supported, in which case a new
RemoteHWInterface is created that tries to connect to the given host:port.
* Fix shape bounds when drawing, they need to be translated by the pen position
and converted to screen like the points as well. Wasn't visible though as the
bounds weren't used in the normal DrawingEngine.

made some methods private. Those weren't used anywhere outside of the class

* Added a third hinting mode: monospaced fonts only. This is especially helpful
with low resolution devices like the EeePC - small fonts can look pretty bad
when hinting is turned on, and you still have the advantage of hinting for
text editors and the terminal.
* Added a ServerFont::Hinting() method (that currently only evaluates the
global hinting setting).
* Added a TODO comment on why having global settings is not what we aim for.

Added additional font face flags for "condensed", "light" and "heavy".
Our font has some extra styles and these could be picked up as the
"regular" face by accident, as witnessed by Firefox. Tracked down by
Michael Lotz. Firefox uses the correct font now for it's interface.

* Do not trust the client! ServerFont::GetEscapements() now takes a
parameter for the length of the arrays, so that even if the char/byte
counts do not match, no memory is overwritten anymore.
This fixes bug #1862; .canna obviously contains invalid UTF-8
characters, or there is a bug in StyledEdit (or deeper) and it doesn't
call BFont::GetEscapements() correctly.
* Fixed some cases of unchecked allocations in the font handling methods
of ServerApp, added TODOs to all other ones.
* Improved error code when creating a window fails.

* fix the mixup of charCount (glyphs) versus bytes. The new font cache
implementation takes the byte count, even though it looks like this is
less efficient when the glyph count is already known (I tested to
optimize it away but it was not faster)

* complete overhaul of the font/glyph caching
* the previous AGG implementation is superfluous
* the new implementation is based on that one, but in a way that allows
read/write locking to the list of cache entries (fonts) as well as
read/write locking to the cached glyphs per individual font cache entry
* new GlyphLayoutEngine.h, which is to be the central place for layouting
glyphs along the baseline.
It handles the locking for getting the font cache entries.
It works by giving it a template class GlyphConsumer which does the
actual work.
* changed AGGTextRenderer to use the new font cache
* changed ServerFont::StringWidth(), and the bounding box stuff to use it
* changed DrawingEngine, it doesn't need the global font lock anymore
* our BFont thought that GetBoundingBoxesAsGlyphs and GetBoundingBoxesAsString
is the same, which of course it isn't, hence the two separate functions...
AsGlyphs just gets the bounding box of each glyph in a string, not treating
the string as an actual word
AsString adds the offset of the glyph in the word to the bounding box
* changed ServerProtocol.h accordingly for the different bounding box meaning

* implemented "false bold" for text rendering. It is a new property
of BFont. You can BFont::SetFalseBoldWidth(float) a width on a
BFont object, and it will cause the glyph shapes to be run through
an AGG "contour converter" so that they become thicker or thinner.
IIRC, this is commonly referred to as "false bold". The "width" value
is the distance in pixels that the new glyph outline will be offset
from the original outline.

It would be nice if someone could look at my change to View.h with
regards to the B_FONT_ALL flag.

* Removed headers/private/servers/app - everything is in src/servers/app now.
* Removed DisplaySupport.h, wasn't needed anymore.
* Removed private color set functions from InterfaceDefs.cpp - we might want
something similar, but definitely not like that.
* Minor cleanup, added some missing licenses.
