An option to exclude non-BMP glyphs from the old-style kern table

Under Microsoft Windows, non-OpenType-aware applications use [GetKerningPairs()] (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd144895%28v=vs.85%29.aspx) API function to obtain kerning information from the old-style *kern* table. Unfortunately, Windows has an undocumented "feature" that if *kern* table contains at least one unencoded glyph (or a glyph encoded outside of the BMP), GetKerningPairs() returns 0 (zero) kern pairs, i.e. kerning doesn't work at all. Since the old-style *kern* table is intended primarily for non-OpenType-aware applications, which can't access unencoded glyphs in the first place, the *kern* table with unencoded glyphs is thus almost useless, at least on Windows.

Currently FontForge only warns the user if there are any non-BMP glyphs in the *kern* table, but doesn't offer any solution apart from disabling the old-style *kern* table altogether. The proposed patch implements an option, accessible both via "Generate fonts" dialog and scripting interface, to automatically exclude non-BMP glyphs from the *kern* table.

Some additional information about the GetKerningPairs() behavior:

I think it's the barrier value but strictly speaking, unencoded glyphs are >0xFFFF.
