We should have been using Droid Sans, not Helvetica, and some of the
non-Roman locales need special handling to render clearly and correctly. We
also get better results if we avoid scaling after rendering the text.
Added scripts/newbitmaps/Makefile to regenerate it all, updated the READMEs.
Since Hung-Te figured out how to use pango-view to render the UTF-8
reliably, we don't need to keep all the pre-rendered locale images anymore
either.
This provides the x86 bmpblock for Stumpy PVT. We may need some more
tweaking for Lumpy and/or ARM.

Put the new screens into the bios:
gbb_utility -s --flags=0 -b bmpblock_x86.bin OLDBIOS NEWBIOS
flashrom -w NEWBIOS
Then reboot and look at the BIOS screens. The lettering is much clearer.

* Updated the text strings using the latest results from the localization
experts.
* Strip the leading byte-order-mark and trailing whitespace from the text
files, since it's not used for anything and sometimes renders as a box.
* Added options to the text_to_bmp script to handle right-to-left languages
and to override the font.
* Added scripts/newbitmaps/strings/localized_text/Makefile to regenerate all
the bitmaps from the text strings. This handles right-to-left languages
correctly.
* Modified make_default_yaml so that the th/model.txt string is moved up a
bit to align it properly with the HWID.
* Regenerated DEFAULT.yaml using the new bitmaps.

Also adding support for the xx-YY variants to the make_yaml_from_hwids
script, which required that I rename those directories from xx-YY to xx_YY.
Providing a default locale ordering for all locales, which is roughly
geographical.

There are lots of new and changed files here, but they're mostly localized
text strings and prerendered bitmaps of them.
There are a few that still need rendering by hand. These locales don't work
with ImageMagick:
