New `[locale='xx']...[/locale]` markup lets GUI text sections render
with a locale-specific font (e.g. CJK) while the rest of the caption
keeps the current game font.
guiObject.caption = "Hello [locale='ja']世界[/locale], how do you
[locale='zh']感覺[/locale]" This is ideal for language pickers and
similar UI where you want the language name shown in its own script.
This commit unlocks richer, self-explanatory international UI while
keeping the legacy text behaviour unchanged.
Make include-what-you-use happy with some files in source/graphics and
fix what needs to be fixed.

Previously, `height` was derived from a manually chosen glyph (typically
"I", Standard Cap Height) using FontBuilder, and `lineSpacing` was used
inconsistently for layout logic as a height.
Now, with the FreeType-based system:
- `height` uses `face->size->metrics.height`, which includes the
recommended line height with internal leading/line gap as defined by
the font designer.
- `lineSpacing` was removed
- `GetCapHeight` uses the standard cap height + ascender to have a
visual virtual alignment
This change standardizes font metric usage:
- Use `height` for vertical layout and line progression.
- Use `GetCapheight` in layout engines like `CGUIText` or `CGUIString`,
This ensures better alignment across fonts and consistent spacing in
multiline text rendering.
Fixes: #7962
This commit enhances text rendering by leveraging FreeType and a dynamic
font atlas. Previously, GUI scaling relied on bitmap fonts, which led to
blurry and distorted text when scaling up. Now, we scale the font size
directly using FreeType, resulting in much sharper and more readable
text at any GUI scale.
Key improvements:
- Replaced bitmap font scaling with true font size scaling via FreeType.
- Reduced glyph cache dependency on fixed positions, relying on shader
scaling instead.
- Switched to float-based glyph positioning for more accurate rendering
and scaling.
These changes ensure clean and consistent text appearance across
different GUI scales.
Avoid cases of filenames
Update years in terms and other legal(ish) documents
Don't update years in license headers, since change is not meaningful
Will add linter rule in seperate commit
Happy recompiling everyone!

This was SVN commit r27786.
Replace unifont with CFont and CFontManager, since the h_mgr interface
was
needlessly inconvenient.
Load the font textures through CTextureManager, to support dynamic
reloading (e.g. when resetting GL state - see #741).
Add CFontMetrics as a convenient wrapper for code that just wants to
measure text.
Fixes#1117.
This was SVN commit r14016.
