Fonts with no vertical metrics should synthesize baselines

[Dave Hyatt]

Fonts with no vertical metrics should synthesize baselines when they appear on lines that do use fonts with vertical metrics.  Basically we want to make sure that English text behaves like vertical-align:middle, i.e., its baseline should be treated as though it cuts through the middle of the ascent+descent.

If you wanted, you could change this to a switch statement.

Fixed in r72235.

[WebKit Review Bot]

http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/72235 might have broken SnowLeopard Intel Release (Tests)
The following tests are not passing:
fast/blockflow/vertical-font-fallback.html
fast/repaint/repaint-across-writing-mode-boundary.html

[Ryosuke Niwa]

It seems like this change requires rebaselines for the following tests on GTK:
fast/css/line-height-determined-by-primary-font.html
fast/css/negative-leading.html

+mrobinson for GTK rebaseline.

This broke snow leopard tests, and thus the commit-queue:

SUCCESS: Build 20999 (r72235) was the first to show failures: set([u'fast/blockflow/vertical-font-fallback.html', u'fast/repaint/repaint-across-writing-mode-boundary.html'])
