This commit un-deprecates DeprecatedString, and repurposes it as a byte
string.
As the null state has already been removed, there are no other
particularly hairy blockers in repurposing this type as a byte string
(what it _really_ is).

We are planning to add support for CFF fonts to read Type1 fonts, and
therefore much of the logic already found in PS1FontProgram will be
useful for representing the Type1 fonts read from CFF.
This commit moves the PS1-independent bits of PS1FontProgram into a new
Type1FontProgram base class that can be used as the base for CFF-based
Type1 fonts in the future. The Type1Font class uses this new type now
instead of storing a PS1FontProgram pointer. While doing this
refactoring I also took care of making some minor adjustments to the
PS1FontProgram API, namely:
* Its create() method is static and returns a
NonnullRefPtr<Type1FontProgram>.
* Many (all?) of the parse_* methods are now static.
* Added const where possible.
Notably, the Type1FontProgram also contains at the moment the code that
parses the CharString data from the PS1 program. This logic is very
similar in CFF files, so after some minor adjustments later on it should
be possible to reuse most of it.
We have a new, improved string type coming up in AK (OOM aware, no null
state), and while it's going to use UTF-8, the name UTF8String is a
mouthful - so let's free up the String name by renaming the existing
class.
Making the old one have an annoying name will hopefully also help with
quick adoption :^)
We would previously pass this function a unicode code point, which is
not actually what we want here.
Instead, we want the "raw" code point, with the font itself deciding
whether or not it needs to be re-mapped.
This same mistake in terminology applied to PS1FontProgram.
This gives much better visual results than painting the path directly.
It also has the nice side effect that Type 1 fonts will now look much
more similar to TrueType fonts, which use the same class :^)
In addition, we can now cache glyph bitmaps for repeated use.
Previously we would draw all text, no matter what font type, as
Liberation Serif, which results in things like ugly character spacing.
We now have partial support for drawing Type 1 glyphs, which are part of
a PostScript font program. We completely ignore hinting for now, which
results in ugly looking characters at low resolutions, but gain support
for a large number of typefaces, including most of the default fonts
used in TeX.
