Generalize the concept of `tricky' fonts by introducing FT_FACE_FLAG_TRICKY to indicate that the font format's hinting engine is necessary for correct rendering. At the same time, slightly modify the behaviour of tricky fonts: FT_LOAD_NO_HINTING is now ignored. To really force raw loading of tricky fonts (without hinting), both FT_LOAD_NO_HINTING and FT_LOAD_NO_AUTOHINT must be used. Finally, tricky TrueType fonts always use the bytecode interpreter even if the patented code is used. * include/freetype/freetype.h (FT_FACE_FLAG_TRICKY, FT_IS_TRICKY): New macros. * src/truetype/ttdriver.c (Load_Glyph): Handle new load flags semantics as described above. * src/truetype/ttobjs.c (tt_check_trickyness): New function, using code of ... (tt_face_init): This function, now simplified and updated to new semantics. * src/base/ftobjs.c (FT_Load_Glyph): Don't use autohinter for tricky fonts. * docs/CHANGES: Document it.

Don't forget to send a detailed explanation of the problem -- there is nothing worse than receiving a terse message that only says `it doesn't work'.
