This is a major rewrite of the Font system. MoonWorks now uses MSDF font rendering, which allows high quality rendering of fonts at arbitrary sizes.

We now ship default embedded shader binaries for Video and Font. If you replace them with shader binaries of the same name located in your base directory, those will be used instead.

Many improvements have been made to resource tracking to prevent memory corruption, particularly on shutdown.

You must be careful not to leak AudioResource classes in particular, as there isn't much we can automatically do to recover from this without potentially crashing your game.
