Ok, here's a new patch, rebased against master and without an automatic
switch to the autohinter if the font driver can't darken stems. As
Behdad insinuated, it might be better to avoid surprises.
Toolkits would have to implement the switch themselves if they so
desire or enable it only after querying the autohinter or font driver.
And/or only enable it when LIGHT hinting.
The primary purpose and effect of this API now would be to enable
better thread-safety by making at least one commonly used setting face-
local.
Ok, next stop: improve the look of autohinter stem darkening.
