Enable fontconfig support by default. This change takes only in effect, if fontconfig support is actually compiled in. If freetype is not enabled, this patch should have no effect as well. The visible result of this patch is to avoid the warning about a missing ~/.mplayer/subfont.ttf when starting mplayer (or gmplayer) without parameters, like done from the .desktop file.

software scaler filter docs

-ssf cgb=<float> chrominance gaussian blur
	useful for videos with some chroma (color) noise (TV captures, VHS, ...)

-ssf lgb=<float> -> luminance gaussian blur
	hmm, mostly special effect, could be used as lame noise reducer though

-ssf chs=<int> -> shift chrominance horizontally
-ssf cvs=<int> -> shift chrominance vertically
	useful if the luma & chroma are not aligned exactly

-ssf cs=<float> -> chrominance sharpen
-ssf ls=<float> -> luminance sharpen
	simple sharpening filter

note: these will only work if the swscaler is used at all (use -vf scale)

example: mplayer foobar.avi -vf scale -ssf lgb=3.0
