Description
The current font rasterisation path only produces grey scale glyphs. The strikes on a font need
to support LCD text. Then this needs to be propagated to the GlyphCache, and the graphics context.

Comments
Pushed code to support this. There needs to be some additional support for mixing greyscale and LCD glyphs. A new subtask will be filed for that
