All done. Attached patches that separate the advance width function,
adds the config macro, and adds the property service for `type1' and
`cid'.

I did a quick hack in `ftview' for testing, seems to work fine but
needs cleaning up before I can provide the patch for the demos to
support hinting engine cycling for Type 1 fonts.
