Freetype - Windows CE - 4.8.x

[culyun]

I'm considering working in a QFontEngine Freetype backend for Windows CE against Qt 4.8.x.

Has anyone already tried this.. It doesn't look too hard.

All reasonable comments / suggestions welcome.

Heads up. I have a working implementation for Windows targets. I've tested it on both regular Windows and Windows CE, it seems fine!

The implementation has been put together from a mashup of the existing Qt4 Freetype targets with parts of the Qt5 Windows Freetype implementation thrown in for good measure. ... so it's going to need review.

I still need to add proper support for font enumeration which I plan to back port from Qt5.

I've added font enumeration.. seems to work.

Back from the dead. I had some free time, so I applied my patches to a fork of the latest Qt 4 repo on Github:

I've applied some other patches gleaned off the internet to allow the code to work with VS 2017 and added a helper build script.

Hope it's of use to someone :-)
