[Freetype] BDF bitmap bug still present

Hello to all,

It would appear that the bug I reported with the BDF backend is still
present in current CVS (as checked-out right now).

The problem is with the face->available_sizes.width being the width of
the font rather than the pixel size of the font in units of a
horizontal pixel.  This is inconsistent with what is done for sfnt
embedded bitmaps, or for PCF fonts.

  $ ftdump /home/local/XFree86/xc/fonts/bdf/misc/8x13.bdf
  ...
  
  fixed size
     0: height 13, width 8

This should be height 13, width 13.  The relevant reference is the
ppemX entry in the Bitmap Size subtable of the EBDT table in the
OpenType spec.

                                        Juliusz
