v2.99.401

A few embarrassing bugs slipped into the last release.

•Fix alignment issues with subtitles.
Make sure each rendered text line is aligned same way as the text bounding box
Fixes ticket #497
•Don't crash if text rendering fails
•freetype: If we are unable to get a face with style modifiers, try to get one without
It's ok since we can do italic and bold ourselfs. Before this Showtime crashed
•httpclient: Fix regression with non-chunked transfered data
Problem when reading last bytes of file (truncated reads)

•subtitles: Add support for Windows 1250 character encoding
