app_server: Remove erroenous comment as per Julian's review.

app_server: Enable the RGB subpixel rendering codepath.

This change will have no effect if your FreeType was compiled without subpixel
rendering support, but since FreeType is now binary compatible between versions
with and without subpixel rendering, all you have to do after this change
is to recompile and reinstall FreeType.

* Added a third hinting mode: monospaced fonts only. This is especially helpful
with low resolution devices like the EeePC - small fonts can look pretty bad
when hinting is turned on, and you still have the advantage of hinting for
text editors and the terminal.
* Added a ServerFont::Hinting() method (that currently only evaluates the
global hinting setting).
* Added a TODO comment on why having global settings is not what we aim for.

Patch by Andrej Spielmann (GSoC):
* Simplified the subpixel related methods for the AGG "pixel format" template
interface, the ones for the solid cover simply pass through the existing
methods, so only one subpixel blending function is left which does the actual
work (this removes a lot of the previously added code)
* Implemented a new rasterizer based on the original AGG rasterizer which
implements subpixel anti-aliasing for any generic AGG vector pipelines. It
is now optionally used in Painter and AGGTextRenderer (for vector fonts, ie
rotated, sheared or big enough fonts) depending on the global subpixel
setting.
* Put all subpixel variables into the new GlobalSubpixelSettings.h|cpp
* Simplified DesktopSettings related classes a bit and renamed previous
FontSubpixelAntialiasing to just SubpixelAntialiasing.
* The private libbe functions for subpixel related settings moved from Font.cpp
to InterfaceDefs.cpp where other such functions live. They are not related
to fonts only anymore.
* Removed the subpixel related settings again from the Fonts preflet and added
them to the Appearance preflet instead.

All of the above implements subpixel anti-aliasing on a global scale, which
to my knowledge no other OS is doing at the moment. Any vector rendering
can optionally use subpixel anti-aliasing in Haiku now. The bitmap cached fonts
are still affected by the Freetype complile time #define to enable the patented
subpixel rasterization (three times wide glyphs). Vector fonts and shapes are
not affected though at the moment.
