Bug Description

Whenever I have a schematic net label with the letter 'b' (lowercase 'b'), the net-label as displayed in pcbnew is missing any and all b characters.
I have found that this is consistent across multiple projects!

This does not seem to affect upper-case 'B' characters.

Looks like the 'b' is not correctly coded in bitmap font used in OpenGL mode to show net names on tracks and pads.

Wow, that was quick, thanks Maciej! I was going to try to solve this one myself, I've been looking for a simple one to dip my toe in the water. Now I'll have to find another one!
