Use FreeType for scaleable fonts.

Original source code already was bundled with FreeType. Just make the CMake file for this.
Use code pages in the engine for now, switch over to UTF-8 later.

Get rid of shell resource DLLs (cres, cresl, sres, ltmsg).

Prepare resources for different languages like it done in the launcher.
Store text information in UTF-8 encoding.
Use one configuration file to select a language for a game, launcher, etc. (ltjs/language.txt).

Revise launcher

Convert 24-bit images into 8-bit ones.
Optimize fonts to have only windows-1252 code points.
Move NOLF2 related files into ltjs/nolf2/launcher/config.
Move language related files into ltjs.
Change directory layout according to shell resources.
