reduce antialiasing allowance for `textoffset`;
adjust text to baseline using values for Arimo rather than
percentage
GUI: fix not enabling font combo "Small Bold (vector only)" by
default
raster/vector: rename `text_height` -> `font_height`
remove legacy "T" prefix from def commands; reinstate previous R
(TR) def so as to use I (TB) copy to save file size, & for ULTRA
pre-group rects by colour to enable use; adjust H (TH) def so
can use new J copy to save file size; various other fiddles
manual: Royal Mail Mailmark - put Destination+DPS & RTS in tables
for readability
Allow `--embedfont` for non-EAN/UPC SVG also (& update GUI)
SVG: add "fonts/normal_woff2.h"; use array syntax for it &
"fonts/upcean_woff2.h" to avoid large strings
GUI: embed Arimo (via "fonts/normal_ttf.h"), same as OCRB
Change textgap max 5X -> 10X
README: make list of barcodes 2-col table for readability
win32/README: note Visual Studio 2022 re CMake
`EANUPC_GUARD_WHITESPACE`, CLI `--guardwhitespace`) (ticket #287)
EAN-2/EAN-5: HRT now at top instead of at bottom for standalones,
following BWIPP
CLI: batch mode: don't close input if stdin
EAN/UPC: fix excess 1X to right of add-ons
Composites: fix excess whitespace; fix quiet zone calcs to allow
for linear shifting
CLI: use own (Wine) version of `CommandLineToArgvW()` to avoid
loading "shell32.dll"
Move "font.h" -> "raster_font.h"
EPS/SVG: use new `out_putsf()` func to output floats, avoiding
trailing zeroes & locale dependency
EPS: simplify "TR" formula
SVG: change font from "Helvetica, sans serif" to "OCR-B, monospace";
use single "<path>" instead of multiple "<rect>"s to draw boxes
(reduces file size)
Add `EMBED_VECTOR_FONT` to `output_options` (CLI `--embedfont`) to
enable embedding of font in vector output - currently only for
SVG output of EAN/UPC
GUI: use "OCR-B" font for EAN/UPC and "Arimo" for all others (was
"Helvetica" for both); paint background of screen preview light
grey so as contrasts with whitespace and quiet zones
EMF: prefix funcs with `emf_`; simplify string `halign` handling
large: rename `large_int` -> `large_uint`
CODE128/common: move `c128_hrt_cpy_iso8859_1()` to
`hrt_cpy_iso8859_1()` and add `ZINT_WARN_HRT_TRUNCATED` warning
(for future use)
Various symbologies: replace `printf()` with `fputs()`
(symbol->debug)
QRCODE: better assert(), removing a NOLINT (2 left)
CLI: add some more barcode synonyms for DBAR
common: various fiddlings
CMake: don't include png.c unless ZINT_USE_PNG (avoids clang
warning)
barcode and text

following Inkscape)

`noPng()`, `getVersion()`, `takesGS1AIData()`, & `XdimDp` stuff

use in `getAsCLI()`; add comments
- Raise `scale` limit to 200 (from 100) to allow for large dpmm
- output: create directories & subdirectories as necessary for
output path using new function `out_fopen()` and use in BMP/EMF/
EPS/GIF/PCX/PNG/SVG/TIF
