System font width

Hi,

I have an app that calls GetObject on SYSTEM_FONT and then uses the
returned LOGFONT.lfWidth in a calculation. Wine currently returns 0
for the width, which causes a divide by zero error here.

Testing under XP home shows that the returned with is 7 for the
system font. This patch changes the width specified in the stock font
list. Although this makes my app run and doesn't appear to have any
ill consequenses, it may be better to get some advice from a font
expert before committing this patch.

Cheers,
Jon

    Use a (seemingly xp default) width of 7 for system fonts.
