5fcc743d1a [ui] Use fontconfig to find system fonts
I'm not sure I like fontconfig (docs are...), but it is pretty standard,
and I was able to find some reasonable examples on stackexchange
(https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10542832/how-to-use-fontconfig-to-get-font-list-c-c).
Currently, only the one font is handled, no font sets for fall backs
etc. It's meant for the debug UI I'm working on, so that shouldn't be a
big deal.

935e883d8d [renderer] Switch to using HarfBuzz for glyph positioning
This means that QF should support more exotic fonts without any issue
(once the rest of the text handling system is up to snuff) as HarfBuzz
does all the hard work of handling OpenType, Graphite, etc text shaping,
including kerning (when enabled).

Also, font loading now loads all the glyphs into the atlas (preload is
gone).

4d5b38f0c9 [renderer] Star work on adding FreeType support
Right now, this just initializes the library and loads a font into
memory, preloading a given set of characters (specified by unicode
values).
