* Extend the app_server protocol by configuration options to turn
subpixel font rendering on/off and also make the glyph hinting optional
(aligning of glyph shapes to the pixel grid).
* Implement the setting in the app_server and also handle the persistency.

Update the menu_info neverthless, when setting the ui_color for menu
backgrounds. Fixes bug #550.

Still needs code to save the values.
Also needs a way to access them from Decorator::UIColor(), but the DesktopSettings passed to the ctor can't be cached.

This fixes bug #242. The value is currently stored in a separate file.
* Removed some unused codes from ServerProtocol.h.

locking problems (instead of debugging the locker class).
* MultiLocker::IsReadLocked() is now only exported with DEBUG mode turned on, as
it only works correctly in this case.
* Made MultiLocker safe against B_INTERRUPTED, ie. it now just tries to lock again
instead of failing for no obvious reason.
* Removed bogus arguments to acquire_sem_etc() in MultiLocker (like B_DO_NOT_RESCHEDULE).
* Applied coding style to MultiLocker.

* Removed the DesktopSettings lock itself - it's not really needed at all,
and causes some trouble with a clean locking design. This may even have
fixed bug #757, at least I couldn't reproduce it anymore.
* There is now a class for read-only access that requires you to have locked
the desktop (either read or write).
* There is now another class LockedDesktopSettings that allows you to set
settings (and only that) - when you're changing the settings, you must not
have read locked the desktop (ie. hold the single window lock). The class
will obtain a write lock, but write locks can be nested.
* Moved SetWorkspacesCount() into the Desktop class.

* The Decorator are temporarily using ui_color() - this needs to be changed
to use the DesktopSettings (when the decorator stuff gets refactored); right
now, the colors are fixed.
* Added B_WINDOW_TEXT_COLOR, B_WINDOW_INACTIVE_TAB_COLOR, and
B_WINDOW_INACTIVE_TEXT_COLOR to the UI colors, B_WINDOW_TAB_COLOR is no
longer deprecated. Note, however, that not every decorator may use these
colors.
* Removed unused and wrong (ie. hard-coded paths) stuff from ServerConfig.h.

read-only area shared between the Desktop and all applications.
* Right now, this area only contains the desktop colors, ie. B_PANEL_BACKGROUND_COLOR
etc.; ui_color() no longer needs to ask the server for these colors.
* The ui_colors are now maintained by DesktopSettings, though ColorSet is still there.
* The default colors are now hardcoded once and for everyone in InterfaceDefs.h, ie.
the app_server uses them as well.
* Desktop::Init() can now also return an error (but that is not yet accounted for).
* Cleaned up InterfaceDefs.h.
* Fixed wrong include in moreUTF8.h.

modes right yet.
The settings are stored in B_USER_SETTINGS_DIRECTORY/system/app_server/workspaces.
They are currently saved as a flattened BMessage - we might want to switch to the
driver_settings format, though.

in the DesktopSettings as defaults, too (but can be changed there).

* moved the system default font functionality into the DesktopSettings class.
* ServerFont::SetStyle() is now a public method.
* Improved font fallback routines: they will never end up without a font if
there is at least one font installed.
* fixed some minor bugs in the DecorManager.
* Decorator now get a DesktopSettings object passed - dunno if that's a good
idea (since we'll have to open the DesktopSettings header), but it works
for now (and something like this is probably needed anyway).
* a clean ServerFont is now set to the system default font - and not to the
(user chosen) desktop default font anymore (since the font manager doesn't
know about that one).
* Improved font directory scanning in the font manager a bit, it's now using
find_directory() instead of hard-coded paths.

the desktop's settings, you have to do something like this:
DesktopSettings settings(desktop);
settings.SetMouseMode(mode);
The advantage of this is that this object is fully locked, and cannot lead to
corrupted settings anymore. Also, the settings will stay the same until you
delete the object again.
Updated all accesses to use this new API.
Removed no longer used FFM messages.
Implemented AS_{GET|SET}_MENU_INFO for future use.
