The computation of length on screen depend in particular of the computation of the size of an em. Many places of the code used to rely on the width of the M character, which is not really correct:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Em_%28typography%29
In digital typography, the best value to use is the point size of the font.
* Implement FontMetrics::em(), which returns the value in pixels of the EM unit.
Convert code to use it.
* Introduce Length::inPixel(MetricsBase const &), which takes the textwidth and em information from the MetricsBase object. Convert code to use it.
* Fix several places where Length::inPixel is used without a proper em value.
* add mathed_font_em() helper function. It should eventually be removed like some other functions in MathSupport.
* Add dummy implementation of FontMetrics to tex2lyx for linking purposes.

There are several places I was not sure what to do. These are marked
by comments beginning "LASSERT:" so they can be found easily. At the
moment, they are at:

Author.cpp:121: // LASSERT: What should we do here?
Buffer.cpp:4525: // LASSERT: Is it safe to continue here, or should we just return?

- Interpret argument of LFUN_SPACE_INSERT correctly
- Use InsetMathSpace instead of InsetMathSpecialChar for "\ " (bug # 7728)
- Use InsetMathSpace instead of InsetMathChar for ~ (bug # 7728).
This fixes also the display in LyX (previously a literal ~ was displayed).
Using InsetMathSpace enables also the "Insert Formatting" menu entries.
No file format change is needed, since the LaTeX export is unchanged.
Note that there are still some bugs related to spaces in math:
#7746, #7747, #7749, #7842

- \negmedspace and \negthickspace outside of math
- \enspace, \hspace*, \hspace*{\fill} and \hfill inside math
(fileformat change)

THis is a consequence of the new AtPoint mechanism. In the old
world, recordUndoInset was called before INSET_MODIFY. I reintroduced
manual recordUndoInset calls in all places that matter. I suspect
that this issue should be revisited later.
Note that recordUndoInset can now take an optional parameter that tells
what inset is concerned. This is useful because the cursor can be
either just inside the inset or in front of it.

The basic idea was to reuse the corresponding text space inset in the same
fashion as is already done for references. The dialog displays a different
selection for math than for text. If wanted, the additional spaces could
also be enabled for text, but that would be a file format change.
Constructs like \hspace{\mylengthvariable} that are not supported are
treated by the math parser as ERT as before.
For reasons I don't know the context menu does not work, but this is not so
important IMHO (since a left click opens the dialog).

* src/mathed/*.cpp:
- Track mode (math or text) when outputting latex code and
properly wrap commands that are in the wrong mode with
either \ensuremath or \lyxmathsym.
* src/mathed/MathParser.cpp:
- Parse \ensuremath and \lyxmathsym, such that exported latex
produces the same result when imported back.
- Replace latex commands with corresponding unicode symbols.
* src/Encoding.cpp:
- Implement Encodings::fromLaTeXCommand() for converting either
a single or a sequence of latex commands to unicode symbols.

- get rid of the cached Dimension. Text inset dimensions are saved in ParagraphMetrics and mathed maintain their own dimension where needed.
- width(), ascent(), descent(): deleted.
- dimension(): now needs a valid BufferView.
- metrics(): now void.
* BufferView::getCoveringInset(): simplify.
* ParagraphMetrics(): now cache inset dimensions.
