[PATCH] glamor: Handle unexpected GetGlyphs results better

GetGlyphs is supposed to always return the full list of characters
when there is a default character available. However, if an
application opens a 16-bit two dimensional font and then draws with
8-bit requests, GetGlyphs will return zero glyphs if there is no 0th
row. This is probably a bug in GetGlyphs, but it's easy to protect
glamor from it by simply falling through to the case that handles
GetGlyphs failures for fonts without a default character.
