DescriptionSupport subpixel text when FreeType is built without support.
On Fedora, at least, FreeType is built without subpixel support. It
tries to simulate subpixel mode by replicating the gray-values three
times. However, it fails to simulate the actions of the low-pass
filter and so doesn't add border around the glyphs. This patch adds a
compile-time constant, which is the number of bytes of filter border.
If this value is zero (because FreeType is simulating subpixel
support), then we add a transparent border ourselves when transforming
from FreeType rendered glyphs to masks.
