  ttext: tweaks to rendering, especially on Windows

This restores some code that wasn't being used on Windows to strip pre-multiplied alpha
from the text render before passing it to SDL_CreateRGBSurfaceFrom. Despite the code comment
to the contrary, enabling this code doesn't seem to mutilate the text output unless
pango_cairo_show_layout is called *after* stripping.

Unless I'm misunderstanding, pango_cairo_show_layout would get called 4 times on Windows.
Removing 3 of those calls meant the use of CAIRO_ANTIALIAS_GRAY as a fix for bug #21648
now resulted in horrible-looking text. Changing the AA method to CAIRO_ANTIALIAS_GRAY now
seems to produce acceptable results.

The resulting text is only slightly different from that produced before this change, though
very slightly more anti-aliased and a little grayer.
