* modes.mf (mode_include_extra_info_available): new boolean,
so we can test for it using MF's known primitive in
mktextfm. known only works on primaries, not definitions.

+% 600dpi is much higher resolution than currently available on laptops
+% or mobile devices, but they do do antialiasing. Here are some words
+% from Martin about it:
+%
+% PK fonts are strictly black and white. On real paper, the ink dots will
+% be fuzzy at the edges smoothing the outline. On electronic devices, a
+% black and white font does look jagged (unless the device resolution is
+% very high). So it is better to produce a black and white font at a
+% higher resolution and let the graphics card scale it down to the device
+% resolution. At the edges then one device pixel will correspond to
+% several font pixels and the graphics card will average over these pixels
+% and produce a gray value. The fonts then look much smoother. 600dpi is a
+% good compromise. The font is not too big, and it will still look nice.
+% If the device resolution is e.g. only 300dpi, 4 pixel in the font will
+% map to one pixel on the screen. So around the edges you get 5 different
+% gray-levels from all black (0) to all white (4). If the device
+% resolution is even lower, the shading at the edges uses even more gray
+% values. |blacker| is the only parameter with much effect here.
