Extended ASCII font chars (>127)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Printing chars with codes > 127 crashes program.
It can be easily fixed by using unsigned char instead of signed:

virtual void print_char(uint8_t, uint8_t, unsigned char) = 0;

Also, after fix, you can use full ASCII character set at file ascii8x8.h
(sample files is attached)

I have fixed print_char to accept extended ascii however I will not include an 
extended character set by default.  I am however going to include a method for 
using a user defined character set such as this.  I expect to remove the 4x6 
and 8x8 font sets and make them easily usable in the same fashion to cut back 
on flash use(doing this would save almost 2k of flash if only using the 
5x7(actually 6x8)).
