Joachim Henze de68701d21 [0.4.10][WIN32SS] Fix some regressions of font rendering / font placement
This commit deals with the following tickets:
CORE-14994 "Spotify 1.0.29.92 has no icons on the buttons"
which regressed by 0.4.10-dev-466-g 35f62fc5ba

CORE-15166 "Media Player Classic HomeCinema MPC HC 1.7.13 'elapsed time' in status bar uses incredibly tiny font"
which regressed by 0.4.10-dev-466-g 35f62fc5ba

CORE-15303 "Firefox 28 does not longer show the checkmarks in the menubar"
which regressed by 0.4.10-dev-466-g 35f62fc5ba

CORE-16125 "Marlett, the 'top-right-closing-x' drawing regressed"
which regressed in master by 0.4.13-dev-110-g 19fc9415bf (in older releases by different commits)

---------------
The fix that manages to fix them all is a backport of the code-base that evolved up to 0.4.12-release-24-g4572c75. This was the source of porting.

*Before* the fix I found the following state for 0.4.11-release-39-gdeae917 by testing:
CORE-14994 ok
CORE-15166 ok
CORE-15303 ok
CORE-16125 affected

*Before* the fix I found the following state for 0.4.10-release-48-g72a4ecb by testing:
CORE-14994 affected
CORE-15166 affected
CORE-15303 affected
CORE-16125 ok

So the before-state was kind of exclusive-OR.
*After* the fix all of the mentioned tickets are fixed for releases/0.4.10 and releases/0.4.11

Ftr:
0.4.12-release-24-g4572c75 had all 4 tickets fixed, because it did receive the needed patches beforehand.
0.4.9-release-56-g9be0765 had all 4 tickets fixed, because it was never hit yet by the guilty commits in master branch. It does not heavily need those fixes yet therefore.

And last but not least, the backport to releases/0.4.10 will also inherently contain the fix for
CORE-15331 "[WIN32SS][FONT] Fix NEWTEXTMETRIC.ntmCellHeight value" (which was already fixed in initial releases/0.4.11)

In sum this backport contains the following commits (at least):
0.4.13-dev-483-g 641a0ea99b (#1670) CORE-14994 == 0.4.12-RC-38-g d5c85cd
0.4.13-dev-110-g 19fc9415bf (#1535) CORE-15303 == 0.4.12-RC-16-g e1ac9dc
0.4.12-RC-43-g 6f651b6ec5 CORE-16125 (please note, that this is an interim solution and NOT yet the final master-fix of 0.4.13-dev-699-g b8383b4 which would have fixed that as well)
0.4.11-dev-914-g 88ddb37acb (#1093) CORE-15166
0.4.11-dev-656-g 7f679a116b (#1010) CORE-15331

Porting any of those fixes on its own is dangerous, only their combination leads to tolerable results.
