Patch to output font full name

When generating html/xml from a pdf, the font name is substituted using the 'font' array in utils/HtmlFonts.cc and using 'Times' as default if the font is not found on that array.

As I need the font name as is in the pdf, I've written a patch to support that. You might find it useful too (or not!).

The patch provided adds a new command line option to pdftohtml, "-fontfullname", which outputs the font name without any substitutions. This is done for both html and xml. I don't know how if this makes sense in the case of html, but it would be trivial to change that.

With this patch, issue 34057 can be resolved.
