Colorized Fonts

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Currently the loaded fonts are bitmap fonts with transparency, some people
have shown interest (yefeng) in being able to colorize white fonts so we
should add a mechanism for this.

I guess our options are:
1. Make a new set of functions which accepts colors, for example 
gfx_font_print_color
(). Although that would mean duplicating all the font print functions.
2. Add a function gfx_font_set_color() / gfx_font_clear_color() which controls 
the 
color with the normal font functions. When doing clear, it should not apply any 
color.

Feel free to respond if anyone has a preference for any of the two different 
methods.

Option 2 in my comment above has been implemented in r192.
