    Adjust emboldening logic

    Old logic was really bad.  If you requested weight=102 and got a medium
    font (weight=100), it would still enable emboldening...

    Adjust it to only embolden if request was >= bold and font was <= regular.

we need to change this logic again to get this working like:
$ fc-match -f "family: %{family}\nstyle: %{style}\nembolden: %{embolden}\n"
inconsolata:bold         
family: Inconsolata
style: Medium
embolden: True
