Freetype Patented Hinting

[Ros Arm]

Hello,
A recent CMAKE commit has made me notice that a NOSWPAT option determines if FreeType
hinting should be used or not. Please note that the Apple patent on the technology
recently expired, and this option is not needed anymore, as hinting should always be
enabled.

  Hi,
Good to hear that. This setting is used on at least one other place,
too. dxtn.sys containing patented compression algorithms is only being
built when its activated. SO fully deactivating is not possible.

I think we can simply sync freetype then the hinting code will be on by
default
