Font Background Blending

Notes

To use background blending you must ensure the following:

  1. Checked with Font_CacheAddr that The Font Manager supports this bit, as version earlier than 3.35 will complain if this bit is set
  2. Font colours specify 1 or more anti-aliasing colours, else the Font Manager will use 1bpp (non-aliased) painting

As blending is slow, it should be avoided on known uniform backgrounds.
