Textbox size
Correct text length calculation for Fairy Wars-style text boxes fw_textbox_size
Description
This replaces the basic text box length calculation (string length * 8) with a call to GetTextExtent.
To apply these for later games, do an instruction search for:
sub eax , edx lea ecx ,[ eax * 8 ] and ecx , fffffff0 PUSH opcode to reflect the register with the string buffer address (EDI in this case).

Spells
Spell card alignment spell_align
Description
In this game, the fonts for dialog and spell cards have different sizes. For this reason, we would have to reset the font after the SelectObject setup - otherwise, dialog text width calculation would use the wrong font for the rest of the game.
Thus, GetTextExtentForFont is used, which takes the font for the calculation as a parameter and does temporary font selection on its own.
