Akira TAGOH 528b17b283 Drop elements with its namespace from conf
The translation related elements are now provided by separate files
fontconfig.its and fontconfig.loc. we don't need to have it in conf
anymore.

Nicolas Mailhot 9c46ef4aac Use an URN for DTD ID
XML tools interpret “fonts.dtd” as a relative path.

Unfortunately, that can not work now that the configuration is spread over
multiple system-dependant directories, without a common relative path to this
file. And, an absolute path can not be defined in a system-independant way.
System independance is a requirement to share config files between systems.

Therefore, replace the broken relative path by a formal URN, that will work the
same way on all systems, without network access.

This makes the DTD registerable with commands like:
$ xmlcatalog --noout --add system \
                           "urn:fontconfig:fonts.dtd" \
                           "file:///usr/share/xml/fontconfig/fonts.dtd" \
                           /etc/xml/catalog

That enables easy config file checking:
$ xmllint --loaddtd ${config_file} >/dev/null

Akira TAGOH 9a0fcb948f Add the ruleset description support
Trying to address what these configuration files really do.
This change allows to see the short description that mention
the purpose of the content in the config file and obtain
them through API.

This change also encourage one who want to make some UI for
the user-specific configuration management. it is the main
purpose of this change for me though.

Aside from that, I've also made programs translatable. so
we see more dependencies on the build time for gettext,
and itstool to generate PO from xml.

Akira TAGOH bc4517d8e5 Bug 19128 - Handling whitespace in aliases
Add a new attribute `ignore-blanks' to <test>.
When this is set to "true", any blanks in the string will be ignored
on comparison.  This takes effects for compare="eq" or "not_eq" only.

Also changed the behavior of the comparison on <alias> too.

Behdad Esfahbod 7465091fa9 Remove redundant/obsolete comments from conf files.
Conf files had an initial comment mentioning the files' name.
This was outdated and wrong in most cases.  There's no real use in that.

Keith Packard 6c5619a085 Split much of the configuration into separate files. Renumber files
Most of the remaining elements in fonts.conf have been moved to separate
files. The numbering scheme for conf.d files has been documented in the
README and the files have been renumbered. Config files have been
validated against the DTD and a few minor errors fixed.
