Hello,

This is another patch from Bernie Purcell, that was already presented in 
an another way and have been cleaned up and separated from the main 
patch. It is an important patch (47K), but don't know how to break it.

This patch:
* try to solve the fribidi styles problems that have occured
"The basic problem with bidirectional text is that we need to process an
entire row of on-screen text in one go with fribidi if we want it to do
the job properly. In the last patch I submitted I had a little less
experience with Right to Left text and got it wrong - If the 2nd word in
a line of Arabic text, for example, was in bold I was processing each
change of style in turn and getting it reversed, but the overall order
of text on the line came out wrong."
* introduces ft_style_t, to solve the precedent problem,
* solves a few errors from precedent commits,
* split some big functions on my request to avoid many imbrications.

Please comment,

gtz,
jb
