[autofit] Improve scoring algorithm for identifying stems. Problem reported by Karsten Lücke <karsten.luecke@kltf.de>. The new algorithm takes care of the width of stems: If the distance between two segments is larger than the largest stem width, the demerits quickly increase for larger distances. This improves hinting of slanted fonts (especially if the inner parts of serifs have non-horizontal `shoulders'), avoiding false stem links. * src/autofit/aflatin.c (af_latin_hints_link_segments): Use largest stem width (if available) to compute better demerits for distances between stems. (af_latin_hints_detect_features): Pass stem width array and array size. (af_latin_metrics_init_widths): Updated to use original algorithm. (af_latin_hints_apply): Updated to use new algorithm. * src/autofit/aflatin.h: Updated. * src/autofit/afcjk.c: Updated.
