Description
We can include unicode ranges as long as one item in that range is requested. For example: if a leter is requested, we can include all the english leters, the same for numbers and for accented chars.
We should be able to construct plain BitmapFonts and BitmapFonts with MSDF or SDF.

The idea is to convert the default TTF font into a default lazy-computed MSDF font for quickly render text, but only compute glyphs on demand.
