Instead of converting symbols into UCS4 string in each backend, we now
pass the whole data from the console layer into the renderers.
This makes all renderers indepedent of any recently introduced
symbol-tables and they can be implemented inside of TSM without exporting
them. However, we still need to pass the IDs to the text layer. The text
layer must not use them for anything but identification. Moreover, it must
never assume that they are valid tsm_symbol_t values.
We do this so the backends can still have fast hashtable lookups rather
than allocating big keys containing the UCS4 string+length and using these
for lookups.

This moves the timers to SHL and removes the old static_misc header and
source. They are no longer needed.

Shl (Static helper library) is the new name of all static helpers in
kmscon that might be shared between different applications.

The freetype2 renderer uses ft2 and fontconfig to provide a very
simplistic renderer. We also simplify the logic of the whole subsystem a
lot and guarantee that each glyph will have the same size now.

When running as emergency console, we must correctly deal with missing
libraries. Therefore, our font renderers must be modular so if freetype2
is not found we must be able to load another font. Therefore, this
introduces a new font-subsystem which can add/remove font-renderers
on-the-fly.
The real font-renderer backends will follow. This only provides the
modular infrastructure.
