It used to be that if you created a TextLayout with a font render context that
indicated the use of antialiasing, rendering that TextLayout would render with
antialiasing. However, it seems that some JVMs don't do that, so we need to
manually enable antialiasing before rendering the TextLayout. Such are the
millions of tiny inconsistencies that undermine write once run anywhere.
