Scale fonts context menu (#246)
* Retrieve scale plugin from lite-plugins

* New implementation of scale plugin and font C API

Introduce two new C API functions, renderer.font.get_size and set_size
respectively to get the font size and to set the size to a new value.

Using these functions we don't need to know the name of the font but
we can just change their size.

Adapt the scale plugin to use the new C API function with minor adaptations
in the logic.

Use smaller step to scale fonts.

Rename font_desc_free function, previous name was misleading as only the cached
resources are freed.

* Add contextmenu plugin from takase

From https://github.com/takase1121/lite-contextmenu

Adapted to show font scaling commands and find/replace commands.

i#	testing.lua

* Fix the cursor flickering with contextmenu

To avoid flickering of the cursor when using the context menu
we add a new function `core.request_cursor` that just take note
of the cursor requested.

The cursor will be actually changed only in root_view:draw() method
only when all the drawing operations are done. This means the cursor
will be changed only once per frame and only the most recent cursor
change request will take effect.

* Remove unneeded scale plugin return functions

Francesco Abbate 46c3bdea67 First implementation of scaling for retina display
Introduce a new approach that discriminate coordinates in
points and pixels. Now all the logic from the Lua side and in
rencache is to always use points. The coordinates are converted
to pixels only within the renderer, in the file renderer.c.
In this way the application logic does not need to care about the
scaling of the retina displays.

For non-retina display the scaling between points and pixels is
equal to one so nothing will change.

There is nevertheless a change that leak into the Lua side. The
subpixel coordinates are in sub-pixel, not sub-points so they are
scaled by the retina scaling factor. But no change in the code is
required because the subpixel scaling factor take into account the
retina scaling, when present.

Because the retina scaling factor is not know when the application
starts but only when a window is actually available we introduce a
mechanism to render the font with a given scaling factor only from
the renderer when they are needed. We use therefore FontDesc to
describe the font information but without actually rasterizing the
font at a given scale.
