a2c10f6189 unicode: Support characters beyond the first unicode plane
We used 16-bit variables to store the 'character code' everywhere but
this won't let us represent anything beyond U+FFFF.

This patch changes those variables to a custom type that can be 32 or 16
bits depending on the build, and adjusts numerous internal APIs and
datastructures to match.  This includes:

 * utf8decode() and friends
 * font manipulation, caching, rendering, and generation
 * on-screen keyboard
 * FAT filesystem (parsing and generating utf16 LFNs)
 * WIN32 simulator platform code

Note that this patch doesn't _enable_ >16bit unicode support; a followup
patch will turn that on for appropriate targets.

Appears to work on:

  * hosted linux, native, linux simulator in both 16/32-bit modes.

Needs testing on:

  * windows and macos simulator (16bit+32bit)

d05c59f35b internals: Support characters beyond the first unicode plane (WIP)

This patch changes those variables to a custom type that can be 32 or 16
bits depending on the build, and adjusts numerous internal APIs and
datastructures to match.  This includes:

 * utf8decode() and friends
 * on-screen keyboard
 * font manipulation, caching, rendering, and generation
 * VFAT code parses and generates utf16 dirents
 * WIN32 simulator reads and writes utf16 filenames

Note that this patch doesn't _enable_ >16bit unicode support; a followup
patch will turn that on for appropriate targets.

Known bugs:

  * Native players in 32-bit unicode mode generate mangled filename
    entries if they include UTF16 surrogate codepoints.  Root cause
    is unclear, and may reside in core dircache code.

Needs testing on:

 * windows simulator (16bit+32bit)

e1da541749 Option to use the lighter hinting algorithm (FT_LOAD_TARGET_LIGHT).
I've found this algorithm produces clearer results when rendering
some fonts at small point sizes.

b66239b436 Fix Win32 native convttf creating invalid output files.
When operating with binary files on Windows it is necessary to explicitly open
them in binary mode to prevent unwanted effects.

7adc200564 Make convttf build with C89 compilers.
- Move variable declarations to the top of blocks to be compatible with C89
  compilers (like MSVS).
- Remove unnecessary Windows includes.
- Paths on Windows usually use backslash as path delimiter so accept that as
  well.
- Rename some variables to avoid shadowing functions (like index()).

No functional changes.

9edd6d4ee9 Anti-Aliased Fonts support.
This enables Rockbox to render anti-aliased fonts using an alpha blending method.
The input font bitmaps are 4bit, i.e. 4x larger, but the metadata size stays the same.

A tool, convttf, for converting ttf fonts directly to the Rockbox fnt format is provided.
It has a useful help output, but the parameter that works best is -c1 or -c2 (2 for larger font sizes).
