Font squeezing broken for fonts with extra kerning

General JUCE discussion

Hi,

From JUCE 8, font squeezing is buggy for fonts with an extra kerning factor using the code
label.setFont(juce::FontOptions(15.0).withKerningFactor(0.1f))

During squeezing, it strips of the last character.

This is how a squeezed font used to look with JUCE 7.0.12:

This is how the squeezed font look with JUCE 8.0.2:

In a client project many labels show up without the last character, which is not good. A fix would be appreciated ;).

Thanks,
Jelle
