<pre>
Copies over new-style color procs when making a null device with a
target, to avoid inconsistent states. Fixes bug #687770.

DETAILS

The problem was a null device (for implementing stringwidth) with
inconsistent color info; the color_info struct specified 4 components,
but the get_color_mapping_procs was
gx_default_DevGray_get_color_mapping_procs, which is the desired value
for null devices instantiated through gs_copydevice
(i.e. -sDEVICE=null). As a result, cm_comps[1] through [3] were left
uninitialized, and, when negative, would crash the halftone logic.

This patch copies over the new-style color mapping procs (the
old-style were already copied) in the gs_make_null_device routine. A
strong argument could be made for changing the logic in
gx_device_copy_color_procs() instead, but it was felt that this change
was more localized.

Dan reviewed this patch during a phone conversation, so I am going ahead
and committing. I'm also opening a new bug to encourage a closer look
at other uses of gx_device_copy_color_procs() to see whether a change
there is beneficial or harmful.</pre>

Add utility mkcidfm.ps to create a cidfmap file based on fonts
found in a directory.
Change MS-Windows installer to optionally update lib/cidfmap
with the CJK fonts found in the Windows font directory.

DETAILS:
Ghostscript does not ship with CJK fonts.
If support for Chinese, Japanese or Korean is added to MS-Windows,
CJK TrueType fonts and font collections are added to the MS-Windows
fonts directory.  These can be used by ghostscript by specifying
mapping and aliases in the lib/cidfmap file.
This patch looks in the MS-Windows fonts directory for known
CJK fonts, and if present it appends appropriate mappings or
aliases to the lib/cidfmap file.
The font names and aliases are currently fixed, but can
be changed by editing mkcidfm.ps.

A new checkbox is added to the installer dialog
"Use Windows TrueType fonts for Chinese, Japanese and Korean"
Only if the user selects this will lib/cidfmap will be updated.
The default behavior is that lib/cidfmap is unchanged.</pre>

<pre>
Fix for Bug 687459 (SEGV) addressing several problems: (i) Elements
fetched from a font dictionary have to be dereferenced into a ref
since pointers change if the dictionary is resized (to add entries);
(ii) The glyph_cache used by gs_font_cid2 fonts needs to be in stable
memory since elements might be added after a 'save' and the list will
still be refereced by the font, so cannot be freed by 'restore';
(iii) The gs_glyph_cache__release was never being called so creating
a memory leak -- font notification (called by gs_font_finalize) is
now used to free the cache list; (iv) The gs_glyph_cache__release
did not work (probably was never tested since it was not being used).

DETAILS:

Using stable_memory means that the objects created need to be freed
properly, that's why the font_notify mechanism was used. This fixes
the problem reported by the bug and doesn't seem to have created
any other problems (regression test passed).

A 'memory' element was added to the gs_glyph_data_s structure so
that the 'bits' can be allocated using the desired memory (stable
memory in the case that we are using the cache). This was deemed
preferable to always using the pfont->memory->stable_memory since
changing to this might cause other problems. This did create a
fair number of changes since every place the get_outline was used,
the glyph_data structure needed to have the 'memory' element set.
We could have used 'NULL' to signal pfont->memory, but this might
have masked uninitialized memory issues that can be tracked with
tools such as valgrind.

The gs_glyph_cache__release was totally broken, and since it was
not previously used, fixing and testing it presents no risk of
other clients relying on broken behaviour.

The implementation of the cache is VERY RUDIMENTARY -- a linked
list of elements with a hard-coded number (32767) limit to the
size of the cache. The size is too small to be useful for Asian
fonts, but making it bigger will result in a lot of time spent
finding a 'miss' condition. At least the current logic has LRU
slot re-use behaviour (which should be retained). Fixing this,
and making the cache limit larger are left for a later change
(post 8.50 release).

EXPECTED DIFFERENCES:

None.</pre>

Fix : toolbin/pdfinflt.ps did not decompress some streams (continued).

DETAILS :

The 2nd Patch from SaGS for the bug 687746
"gs\toolbin\pdfinflt.ps doesn't unpack a stream"

The previous patch contained on over-optimization that leaded to a corrupted
operand stack. "{ [ {proc} {proc} ] }" (note: 2 identical inner procs)
can be optimized:
either as "{ [ {proc} dup    ] }" - use VM for only 1 copy of "{proc}"
or as	  "{ { {proc} {proc} } }" - the 2-element array is allocated
				    only once, by the parser, not at
				    each execution of the enclosing proc
but we cannot apply both these optimizations at the same time.

This error affects PDF files that include a /Filter and/or /DecodeParams
specified as 1-element arrays. PDFs for which these entries are a single
name (for /Filter) or dict (for /DecodeParams) or arrays with 2 or more
elements are not affected.

EXPECTED DIFFERENCES :

None.</pre>

Fix (pdfwrite) : Forget cancelled resources.

DETAILS :

Bug 687749 "PS to PDF generates very large PDF document"

1. An indeterministic bug fixed in gdevpdfi.c, hunk #1.

2. Implemented a recognition of equal patterns in gdevpdfi.c
and provided a PDF pattern substitution.
We caould not provide a substitution in the PS interpreter
because an accumulated pattern instance doesn't point
to the corresponding client color.

3. pdf_forget_resource is applied when a resource is cancelled and
is not longer needed. This applies to all redundant resources except patterns,
because patterns keep the substitution data.
We would like to save memory from substitured patterns with
a special substitution table,
but we have no time for such optimization now.

4. The function pdf_forget_resource is some slow
because the data structure was not designed for
removing resources from lists.
We would like to implement dual linked lists,
but we have no time for such optimization now.

5. Since pdf_forget_resource is not applied to patters,
we need to prevent a big growth of the number of stored patterns.
We implemented pdf_drop_resources for that purpose
and drop all substitured pattrens after 300 ones
have been accumulated, but not frequenter than once per page.
This solution isn't perfect, but should work for most cases.
If a substituted pattern is dropped erroneusely,
it will be accumulated again, maybe causing some slowdown.

6. Implemented a new device parameter PrintStatistics.
The new function pdf_print_resource_statistics
prints a statistics to stdout.

Bug 687614 "mirrored glyph is rendered at incorrect position".

This patch fixes the problem for raster devices.
Without -dNOCACHE the behavior was indeterministic due to
uninitialized cxs.use_FontBBox_as_Metrics2 in zchar1.c.

We ported the change from gstype1.c to gstype2.c with no special testing
because we have no practical examples of Type 2 with a replaced lsb.
It happens so because Type 2 only appears in PDF, which doesn't replace lsb.
