[Vladimir Uryvaev <vovanius@...>]

I've done first version of new stroke font. Here's a patch (newstroke-
font.patch) and an font file itself (newstroke_font.h, gzipped). Font file is to 
"include" directory (where the Hershey's fonts too).

Cmake option "-DKICAD_NEWSTROKE_FONT=ON" is included to use this new font.

Character ranges done:
Latin (ASCII) (U+0020...U+02AF, Phonetic Extensions, U+1D00...U+1D7F, Extended 
Additional U+1E00...U+1EFF)
Greek and Coptic (U+0370...U+03FF, Extended U+1F00...U+1FFE)
Cyrillic (U+0400...U+0523)
Punctuation and symbols (U+2000...U+20B5, U+2190...U+23E7)

I think this covers most european languages and frequenly used symbols in 
electronics.

Font 'sources' you may take here: http://vovanium.ru/sledy/newstroke (sorry 
for russian:)

I'll will work on this font further, so suggestions and bug reports are 
welcome. Also point me to the charaters you want that are not covered.
