On Win32, autocompletion can now use DirectWrite. This will produce better 
quality text drawing that matches document text more closely. 

It occurs automatically when DirectWrite is used for the main window.

Win32 autocompletion lists are now always wide enough to accommodate all 
list items as each is measured. Previously only the item with the most 
characters was measured which could lead to some items being truncated. 
Performance of this seems OK but there may need to be some limit for very 
long lists like only measuring the first 10,000 items.

The committed changes can be examined either in the repositories

hg clone http://hg.code.sf.net/p/scintilla/code scintilla
hg clone http://hg.code.sf.net/p/scintilla/scite

or from
