Hello,
when the TextRenderer should draw a string without spaces that is wider than 
the maximum texture size, the rendering just stops and the application freezes.

if needed i could provide a testcase, but it will be dependend on the graphics 
hardware of course.

thanks.

Integrated John Burkey's new TextRenderer implementation using
glyph-by-glyph caching for most cases, with fallbacks to
String-by-String caching for complete Unicode correctness. New
implementation yields drastic performance improvements for
applications displaying large amounts of dynamic text. Upgraded JOGL
demos to work with new TextRenderer.

This checkin fixes at least the following issues:

Issue 261: Throttle shrinking of backing store texture for TextRenderer
Issue 293: TextRenderer: width of strings with spaces not correct in RC4
Issue 294: TextRenderer: rendering stops when a string is wider than the maximum
texture size
Issue 304: TextRenderer rendering artifacts in 3D mode

as well as outstanding performance issues with the current
TextRenderer reported on the JOGL forum.
