render smoother

     As you know, there are some 3rd party font engines, such as GDI++
<http://www39.atwiki.jp/gdiplusplus/>, which could hook Windows font
related APIs, and render font more smoother.
     In my opinion, that engine seems better than ClearType or other
build-in Windows font engine.
     For Chromium, it use multi-processes structure, a standalone
render process will render the page in sandbox. It means that we
should know which process need be hooked for font smoother.
     So I made some slight changes in Chromium to support GDI++
     1. a new command line parameter "--use-gdipp=<filename>", which
give a setting file for GDI++
     2. the initialize and finalize code in RendererMain function,
which load and free the font engine
     3. a customized GDI++ library which will be linked as static
library in chrome.dll library

The detail steps
