[ft] Don't set font ppem
For discussion see:
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/harfbuzz/2012-April/001905.html
Over time we have had added NO_HINTING all over the place in hb-ft. Finish it off.
Not setting ppem on hb-font disables get_contour_point() calls which is good anyway.
See comments in the commit.

* In particular, FT_Get_Advance() without the NO_HINTING flag seems to be

+ * FreeType works in 26.6 mode. Clients can decide to use that mode, and everything
+ * would work fine. However, we also abuse this API for performing in font-space,
+ * but don't pass the correct flags to FreeType. We just abuse the no-hinting mode
+ * for that, such that no rounding etc happens. As such, we don't set ppem, and
+ * pass NO_HINTING around. This seems to work best, until we go ahead and add a full
+ * load_flags API.

* - We don't handle / allow for emboldening / obliqueing.
*
* - In the future, we should add constructors to create fonts in font space?
