Measure rendered text without drawing it

akbasic needs the advance width of one character cell to build a terminal-style
text surface, and the wrapped size to know where a string crosses the right
margin. akgl_text_measure and akgl_text_measure_wrapped report both over
TTF_GetStringSize and TTF_GetStringSizeWrapped; neither needs a renderer, so
this half of the text subsystem is testable without the offscreen harness.

A negative wrap length is refused with AKERR_OUTOFBOUNDS: SDL_ttf reads it as a
very large unsigned width and quietly stops wrapping, which would return a
measurement that is wrong rather than an error the caller can see.

Also fixes akgl_text_loadfont, which checked name twice and passed an unchecked
filepath to TTF_OpenFont (TODO item 39).

The fixture font is a 10 KB monospaced ASCII subset of Liberation Mono, renamed
because "Liberation" is a Reserved Font Name; see
tests/assets/akgl_test_mono.LICENSE.txt. Monospaced so the suite can assert
width("AAAA") == 4 * width("A") rather than hardcode glyph metrics.

tests/assets/akgl_test_mono.ttf
================================
A subset of Liberation Mono Regular, cut down to printable ASCII (U+0020 to
U+007E) so the text suite has a font fixture that is 10 KB rather than 320 KB.
It is monospaced, which is what the measurement tests rely on: the width of an
N-character string is exactly N times the width of one character, in any font
size, so the assertions do not have to hardcode glyph metrics.
Generated with:
pyftsubset /usr/share/fonts/truetype/liberation/LiberationMono-Regular.ttf \
--unicodes=U+0020-007E --layout-features='' --no-hinting \
--desubroutinize --name-IDs='*' --output-file=akgl_test_mono.ttf
then renamed to "AKGL Test Mono" through the fontTools name table. The rename is
required, not cosmetic: "Liberation" is a Reserved Font Name under the license
below, and a modified copy may not carry it.

/**
* @file text.c
* @brief Unit tests for font loading and text measurement.
*
* Measurement needs a font but no renderer, so this suite runs without a window
* and without the offscreen harness the drawing half of src/text.c is waiting
* on. akgl_text_rendertextat() is therefore not covered here.
*
* The fixture font is monospaced on purpose: the width of an N-character string
* is exactly N times the width of one character, so every assertion below is a
* relationship between measurements rather than a hardcoded pixel count that
* would break when FreeType changes its rounding.
