New issue 1039 by pnorcks: Clean up Font_metric interface
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1039

The current Font_metric interface was designed back when TeX was still used
with LilyPond.  Now that many fonts are loaded with Pango/Fontconfig, the
interface needs an overhaul.

One problem is that a single markup string can use multiple fonts, but the
current interface doesn't completely support this.

See the comments for issue 838 for additional information.
