Hmm, since glyph cache rewrite has not landed on 1.0 branch and I'm not
sure it will go to 1.0.x, I've still think subpixel BGR/vRGB should be
handled correctly in 1.0.x.

I've update my initial patch following David Turner comments on cairo
wrong usage of freetype flags. Code is almost doing the same thing as
Xft, except for hinting == light with subpixel. Currently, since
subpixel is handled by cairo, we can't use light hinting with LCD
render, so I've changed the logic to only set light hinting when LCD
rendering is not used.

Patch has been done for 1.0 branch.
